accord to JDM f22a1 long block-Help!

[hunts project]

Ok, so we bought a JDM f22a1 long block cuz our f22a6 blew up. We are transferring all the parts to it and get to the exhaust manifold, doesn't match up. Ours doesn't line up for bolts and there aren't enough holes on the f22a1 to bolt it on. What do we do? Do we buy another manfold? which one?
if so where. can this one work? please please help

What are the exhaust ports? Is it "0-0-0-0" or "0-00-0"??

PS: JDM motors don't have numbers after the letter engine code. For example, F22A1=USDM; F22A=JDM. I know; who cares but just something I wanna throw out there.

Yea sorry about that f22a1 thing. This is the wife doing the computer searches and phone calling. He always seems to have greasy hands when he needs something.
anyhoo the manifold thing is O-OO-O.
I hope that means something and helps out.
thanks

Oh ok, I think the stock manifold should bolt right up then. Unless the header itself is got a different port than the engine.

yes nusdogg - thank you for your help. I used your reply of: is it O-O-O-O OR O-OO-O and googled and found that our original 1993 Accord has the O-O-O-O but the new JDM is O-OO-O AND that's why it didnt' match up. But found that the next generation ('94+) uses the O-OO-O. so really appreciate your help.
Have a good one. You guys are awesome

Hi,
The exaust man worked out good thanks. I’d like to use my f22a6 intake man from my 93 accord ex on my new JDM f22 motor. I noticed that the gasket was a little different near the water input. I used 94 accord parts for the exhaust do I need to do the same for the intake?

Yeah, you can try that too.

Yes, thats because the A6 has different intake manifold and bigger plenum.
By far the best in it class other than A1 and A4 and even better than F22B1 if you're after performance. F22A flow better.

But if that is a JDM f22A it should be a bolt on as the JDM and A6 are pretty much the same unless you're talking about a F22B1/2(94+) which will be a different stories. Which also explain why the holes doesn't match and you end up using F22B1. All F22A, A1, A4, A6 are pretty much plug and play.

But yes like nudogg said, use the 94+ Accord part since the other part fit.
Kind of make me wonder if its a real JDM F22.
