Default Engine swaps

Can someone give me a list of all the possible engines i can swap in a Del Sol. I'm hoping to hear H22A engine, if not that than i guess i can settle for the B18A.

anything that'll go into a 5th gen civic will work. Same car... So, any D or B engine will bolt right in. F and H need a mounting kit. But they are avaiable from Hasport and a few other companies... Go for the H22!

for a daily driver, I agree. For a drag car, go for it. It's what? 100lbs more than a b18... Not sure on what the difference is, but it's enough to make it understear like a ***** if you're pushing it, but in a straight line, who cares?

Have to ask, what are your plans for it?

On a project car, I'd do it in a heart beat! On a daily driver, I wouldn't think of it. B18 all the way!

Yes yes, H22A engine is heavy on the front so it will cause understeering. Yet, the power of the engine is so amazing. Seeing what it could do to my friends Civic has made me want one in my car too. I am not one to drift with my Del Sol so i guess its ok. My other projects will probably be some JDM conversions. Japan Spec. all the way. Then again, I can work even more and get the Lancer once it comes out. YES! Most Engines have 30K when u swap!
