difference in 2.3 vtec motors
I have a 99 accord. 5 speed. Friend pulled motor out of her 2000 accord automatic. Any difference in motors. Things need to swap? I know flywheel. Have heard intakes are different. Both motors 2.3 vtec. Thanks.

Ok, the motor in my 99 accord 5 speed says F23A1. The motor I got from friend out of here 2000 accord automatic says F23A1 also. Same motor.? Somewhere I herd automatics had smaller throttle bodies. Both motors look the same. Both have distributors. Other than flexplate to flywheel. Anything else different?

I don't think the throttlebody is any different, but you could measure the bore diameter.
Your flywheel bolts are longer than what's used for the (thinner) flexplate, so use the long bolts.
I don't know of any other difference.

Not sure on the economy engines. But I know the performance engines h22/f20b ect. the autos ALWAYS had a smaller TB than the 5 speeds. I think it had something to do with the power output b/c of the transmission falling apart.
