I have a 92 accord with little over 300000 miles, I put a new timming belt on it and 7 months later it blew a camshaft seal and oil soaked the belt. The block was good but the head had 16 bent valves. I was going to rebuild it for about 900 because it did have so many miles.I have friend that has a 92 Prelude with a strong good sounding daul overhead cam engine that i can get for 500 so i figured what the heck.

depending on size of the overhead cam motor, you may have to change the computer as well as switches, etc. and yur harness may not hook up. as long as that stuff is ok and you dont have empty harness spots for the computer then you sholdn't have any trouble.
