Ok first I would like to say that I didn't take pics during my swap. So I'm just posting pics and answering some of the common questions asked about the F22b1 swaps. It's just as easy as swaping an H22 IMO and everything bolts up the same. If anyone is confused on about anything or need pics PM me.
1.The dizzy from the f22ax can work due to it being internal though I'am not sure if the external will work,the alternator work as well.
best pic I had
2. I had no issue with the driver side engine mount I didn't have cut part of the mount at all, and yes all the mounts line up and the f22a tranny can be used with the f22b1 engine for manual tranny's the only issue will be that you'll fall out of vtec between shifts.
ECU'S that can be used are POA which is from 94-97 accords not worth b'cuz vtec is not noticable,P13 from 4th gen preludes which does not have to be chipped, P06 AND P28 ECU's that are from honda civics have to be chipped to run the engine correctly. Remeber these ECU's have to be obd-1 to plug in the factory accord harness.
Now to the techical part the throttle cable,and wiring. What I did with throttle is cut the plastic piece of the throttle cable from the CB width wise
like the black line in the pic and place it on the CD5 throttle cable or as I found out afterwards just cut the rubber end off the CB throttle cable.
Mount the cable at on the throttle body first. Then at the bracket you'll have to set at just about maximum tension like so
Besides wiring vtec the only other thing that needs to be wire is IACV (IDLE AIR CONTROL VALVE) You will have to cut and splice to extend it so that it can reach the IACV due to it being behind the Intake Manifold.
The stock F22B1 exhaust down pipe will fit without cutting the crossmember though it is really tight in clearence. (BUT IF INSTALLING AFTERMARKET HEADERS YOU'LL HAVE TO CUT INTO CROSSMEMBER)
And also the F22B1 downpipe is shorter than the F22AX downpipe
The fuel rail.You do not have to extend the fuel line or move the fuel filter at all. How I did the fuel rail was like this I placed the fuel pressure regulator at the end of the fuel rail and put the other part at the begining of the fuel rail where the fuel line hooks up.
Fuel pressure regulator
Fuel line hook up
You can use the EGR valve and MAP sensor off the F22AX with no issues.
The reason why I did this thread was because Acclude's thread info no longer has working pics,and I have notice a few beginers or other members asking for info for this swap.
