i cant find much info on this so here is my question. i have a 1990 integra ls with a bad motor and tranny and a 1989 honda prelude si with a good motor and tranny but moldy interior not salvagble....is it possible to do this swap i think it would be a fun project... any help?
 
Possible but its not like swapping in other B series motors. The B20a is the bastard of the B series world. Just form a B20b or B20z and swap it in.

yes but the thing is i already have the whole prelude to take the parts from and i have no cash to pick up a b20b. because i have herd alot about the pain the B20a's are....that being said i just wanted to know if it could be done i picked up the prelude for $200 not a big loss if the swap isnt woth it..

It can be done but you'll spend more in miscellaneous bullshit parts and machining to make it work that you will if you just buy a B20b or b20z.
