Question on exhaust manifold for H22A swap in 5th gen
I did and JDM H22A swap (OBD1) into a 5th Gen accord, but the bottom half of the exhaust manifold was missing. The swap and misc. parts killed my cash so I need to get some CHEAP headers (will upgrade to quality later). I have found several on Ebay but need to know about fitment. Will headers for an 92-96 SI fit (I think it is the H23 and thought the exhaust ports were the same as the H22), or will the 97-01 H22 headers fit (I know they switched to an open deck block and some other minor changes but again not sure about the exhaust manifold). The problem is I can find either of those headers for cheap easily but finding them for a 92-96 H22 is proving kinda difficult and finding the bottom half of the stock exhaust manifold is becoming impossible (or people want way to much for it). Thanks in advance.

The H23 Headers WILL NOT FIT with-out mod.
I'm Currently doing a H23 Swap into my Accord.....And Ended up having to use the Welder to heat up the Headers and Bend them around the oil pan, and about 2 1/2 inches to the right looking from the back of the engine........hope it helps, and It's no different than buying a brand new set of headers.
O yeah also.....the H23 upper header fits the F22 lower half.....Might help out a little
