Great motor. From what i remember you can use the H-series transmission and also it has cast iron sleeves. It can take a beating.

for what I understand a F20B is not very common because the mounts are hard to find , so making it fit may be a problem. And it is hard to find parts for it (internal parts)....

Now dont quote me on this ... I remember reading that in a different forum .

Also , I know a lot of people rather do a H22 swap than a F20B ... I believe the price for both a very close

Personally I would go h22 or even a k swap...

However , not many people have a f20b swap so it may be unique to have one

Great motor too

It uses the same mounts as H-series. Also uses the same H-series transmission.

It comes out of an Accord Type-R. Not too many people use it because people rather go for the h22 because f20b is just de-stroked h22, yet it has better sleeves and revs higher. Doesn't Have the crappy sleeves and as i mentioned above it has stronger/better cast iron sleeves.

F20b>h22
