thats how much i paid for my h22, but plus shipping which was $150. you really just have to look. And the h22a stock + boost easily makes over 300 WHP on right around 10psi. BUT you HAVE to have a good tuner that has tuned many h22a's. H22's are funny like that though, i have seen stock ones take 15psi, and i have seen them blow up on as little as 6psi. Its all about tuning. You ask whats the best engine on here and you will get 10,000 diffrent engines, to each his own, BUT a B series swap would just not be the smartest way to go about it.

About the 6 speed, its possible, You would have to find a 2000 accord EURO-R transmission. But it will probably be just as expensive as a custom one if you can even find it.

I dont think so but thats a good question that i would like to know the answer to. Because you can for 100% sure put a k20 head on an h22. I have seen it done with my own eyes.

You cannot link the RSX-S 6 speed transmission to any Prelude motor. Even if you could physically match the bell housing to the engine block, the engines rotate in different directions (I forget if the RSX is clockwise or counter clockwise).

Or you could just drive in reverse all day

Why exactly do you want that extra gear?

I would also like to have an extra gear, I don't know if it is the engine mount inserts I have on it, but to me it feels like my engine needs another gear.
