engine choice???

[willhholla1]

I would like to have 250-300 hp eventually and i was just wondering what would be the best way to go.

currently have f22a4 with 256k miles

considering swapping a stock engine and then boosting or h23 boost.
if i payed the money for the complete h22 swap i would probably just do all motor.

just throwing out some options to get some opinions

The h23 swap is not going to be much more cost effective then an h22 swap... Id get another f22ax and trebuild that for boost...

[FAMOUS T.R.K.]

build a mean ass h23 and then throw in boost and i think you will reach your goal if need any info search on here and you will find

[evil_demon_01]

A F22A is easily capable of 300hp when boosted. Why waste the extra money on a swap.
Save that money and put it towards internals for the F22.

F22a head will outflow any other F/D/H/B series motor, except ther f22c or f20c

Build the f22a!!!

[willhholla1]

with 256k miles on ths motor would it be better to build this motor or jus swap in a better f22 and go from ther

Just keeping using the stock f22a you have now, and get yourseft another f22a and build that one. So that when you're done with your new motor you can just swap it in...and boost it!!

Find a cheap H22, drop it in there. Enjoy 200hp while you build your F22A for boost. Once you're boosted, sell your h22a for a few hundred, and use that money for a dyno tune. Minimal downtime, and you can do it right.


The F22A head only outflows other more performance oriented heads when it's properly modified. In stock form, it doesn't flow all that well. The exhaust ports are restrictive. Making an F22A head flow well, properly, will likely cost you about $1000.

I have no idea what you just said right there.

[syer91]

yea insted of a swap save some money and build a f22 would that be a waste of money or not??

[deevergote]

You can achieve your goals with just about any engine you choose. However, you can build the one you already have, and avoid the cost of buying a new one to build. Once you replace everything, it no longer has that high mileage.

My suggestion was to buy a cheap H22 to drop in for the time being, while you build the F22 for power. Then sell the H22 for close to what you paid for it.

Using punctuation helps people understand you. Remember, we can only read what you type, not hear what it sounds like when you say it. Make yourself clear, or we'll just assume you're a moron and stop giving you advice.

Asking you to communicate clearly is hardly disrespect. Oh well, I guess my assumptions about you were right. Enjoy the forum, while you're here.
