Default F22B1 in a Civic....problems?

Hey, I'm new to the site and I wanted to bounce a few questions off some of you if you don't mind.

I got my hands on a good F22B1. Full set up, tranny too. Due to my limited budget and the fact I still want to make my Civic EX a Stang killer I want to build this motor up good.

Here are my ?'s:

What parts of an H22 are interchagabe with the F. (ex, Pistions, Crank, Rods, Intake, etc.)

Being a SOHC vtec engine and the head has coolant chambers in it, how aggresivly can I port/polish the head and can I oversize the valves a bit w/o comprimising the head strength?

My near-term goal is to get this motor to pump out some serious ponies N/A, then at a later date drop compression, swap cam, and boost it (when I have the money for a turbo kit).

I know Hasport has the mounts I need, I got the angle on the computer/harness and all that. But does anyone know of any problems with fitment into my engine bay? And what about stuffing a turbo in there later?

BTW, I have a 96 Civic EX coupe, and the F22B1 came out of a 95 Accord EX.

Please throw me some advice. If you need more info lemme know.
