and how do you get this info? if you get a 94-95 H22A they have a semi closed deck and love boost...and before you go stouting off which is easier, have you ever done an H swap?




as I have stated many many times, if I were to do another honda project it would be an EK hatch with a boosted 94 H22A and it would desimate. I love the H swap.
A little biased are we?

How wouldn't it be harder? You have to buy custom mounts and do some cutting and drilling to get it to fit, so how is that comparable to just dropping in a B-series using OEM mounts? No, I haven't done an H-series swap. Have you? If so, can you enlighten me since you are so quick to discredit a known fact.

I don't know which B-series you are comparing it to, but the B16 engine drivetrain weighs 85 lbs less than the H-series. I never said it was a big deal in difference, did I?
