Hello all,
I wondered if anyone has ever tried this. let me first start off by telling you what i have and what i have done. I installed a t3/t4 turbo on my 97 accord engine. I also installed a koyo radiator,underdrive pulley kit, aem adjustable cam gear,aem fuel flow regulator,aem high flow fuel filter,venom fuel pump, ported and polished cylinder head,aem fuel rail, installed two new injectors( so i have a total of six injectors on a four cylinder engine), msd blaster 2 ignition coil, msd sci ignition module, obx exhaust system with a high flow cat and that is about all i have done to it so far. I am pretty happy with the power that i have but i want more. I know what everyone is going to tell me and that is swap the engine for a h22a engine. I want that as my last resort. Now here is my question can a dohc fit on my original engine block that use to have a sohc? I looked at some engines and it seems to be a perfect fit but I am not too sure. I didn't get a chance to actually take off a dohc and stick it on a bottom end that is made for a sohc. I am planning on building up the bottom end of my engine i.e. new pistons, rings,crank, and bore it out to 89mm vice 85mm and resleeve it with titanium walls. Also going to install a high flow water pump and oil pump. Yeah I spent a few dimes on my engine but i keep hearing too many horror stories with swapping engines into accords and thats why i steered away from it and decided to build up my sohc engine. I can beat pretty much a lot of cars on the road but now i want more power out of it and that is the only thing left i have to do. If anyone has ever done it or can give me a link that will give me all the dimensions on dohc and engine blocks i would greatly appreciate it. by the way i haven't had my car dyno'd yet but will next year when i am completely done with my engine. peace
