So my platoon sgt. has a 90 accord and i'm going to help him change out his f22 engine for another f22 engine sitting in the bed of his truck. Reusing the tranny and everything else. I probably know more about honda than he does but I never done this before. Can someone point me to the right direction? maybe a how to page .

Here is a DIY for Removing Engine and Tranny, Its for an EG but same basic idea.
If you want to remove just the Engine The Process I would do is the following:(Harder then the above)
-Put car on jackstands
-Remove Wheels
-Remove Exhaust Header/Intake
-Put a Strap around the transmission to hold it in place when the engine is gone and hook it to something
-unhook starter from the transmission and other little stuff.
-Drain all coolants
-Unhook water lines take good pictures to know where to hook them back up at
-Unbolt bottom bolts holding Engine to the transmission
-Put a floor jack or something under the engine then remove top bolts/engine mounts
-lower engine slowly then pull from under the bottom of the car
This is just one of many many ways to do this. I am sure are DIYs for a 90 accord outhere, I didn't see any when I googled. I am sure other users will chime in with good info.
Take lots of pictures of how stuff came off, it will make putting it back together much much easier
