omg..will people stop perpetuating this myth........the H22A is not omghellaheavywhatthefuck...it weighs like 50lbs more than a b series big deal...I have had a b16a, b18c, and b18b swapped civic (myself and roommates) and if I built a honda ever again my first choice would be the H22A...With the HASport mounts the engine is a breeze to install. I have done the swap and the hardest part was denting a frame rail people give this swap such a bad name....in my opinion it is a sweet ass swap...I say go for it and fuck all the B series whores.
