Default H22 Or B20?

Hey guys

Which of these motors do you think would be best in a 88-91 CRX? I'm looking for something that can handle a turbo, What internal mods would need to be done with each to be boosted? I know H22's require cutting of mounts, perfect placement and whatnot, what about the b20? What transmission for each? Any help would be great! Thanks alot guys.

Jack

its not worth the cash. dont belive that. the h22 is a good na. the b20 is a good boost so depends on what you want after the swap.

B-series will always be more practical in the 4G chassis.

id go fo a b20, ive done the swap with a friend and it was a breeze, i saw some of the work on a h22 crx seem like a pain in the ass and well the guy coulnt get traction what so ever.... so he ran 14-15 all day long at the track...

anyways the b20 we put in the crx was cr-vtec and the only thing done internal wise to the motor was arp head studs and rod bolts... other than that fairly stock... we ran that cr-vtec setup with 9 pounds of boost for about 7 months with no major problems *CEL here and there mind you at the beginning* so the engine can take it at least on ours *note that not all engines come to ur home the same so yeah we may have just been lucky*

h22 trans would be h series or f series trans.... most h22s ive help swap we usually just put the EUro R trans

as for the b20 any B series will do... i recommend a GSR with lsd thats what we had in the CRX
