good engine fit? Car Questions

this is an interesting car to do a swap on because it has the rare B21 engine. Lucky for you, it still is a B-Series enigne so you can pretty much put in any B-Series engine- including the B18C5 Integra Type R engine. with some modification you might even be able to put in the H22 VTEC engine from the later model Preludes.

well the b21 in your car is not like any other b-series engine















so you would have to do a few modifications in order to install any engine















the newer version of the preludes have h22's in them but even though they are the same car















the engine bay is different, try using a bolt on engine like a gsr or ls vtec in it

like mentioned the integra engine might be best but thats only 170 hp.. and i don't know if thats what your looking for or not, i believe it's a 1.8 liter..































if you are interested in honda B type engines

a huge list of the b engines, i'm sure many would fit in the prelude with some modification















depends on what you are shooting for































B18C5, B18C6, B18C7 each have about 190 hp give or take, which is quite a decent amount for a small car































you could always buy a cheap type r integra engine and have it shipped

A classic foreigner car dealer could help you with the engine switch















auto parts store sell books on doing engines if you want
