Some people like the underdog though man, I for one think a B series swap is a waist when if your willing to get your hands dirty a H22 can be put in for the same cost as your average B18C swap and have ITR power with TQ that laughs at B series swaps built or not

yeah, but in my case, i would rather get the power out of a b series with bolt ons, because then i can avoid that front end push from the overweight engine when im autocrossing, but i blew up my d series, and i needed a new motor, so i got the b series so that i could still have the drag racing potential, as well as good balance for autocross. its more of an all around motor than the H or the D. dead stock its good for both drags and auto-x, and its even fast enough to take to the nearby road courses. and a few bolt-ons should put me right about where i want to be without sacrificing the DD aspect of it. and if i decide to go all out and turbo this motor, it will handle a lot more abuse than an H22, and has a little more aftermarket support.

The H series has just as much aftermarket support as the B series. What exactly is made for a B series that is not made for a H??????
As far as weight, the H series adds 50 to 65 more lbs to a car than a B series all on the front end, relocate your battery to the rear, carbon fiber hood. and 1 counter weight, go to a scale and place the counter weight where it is needed tack weld it and get 50/50 weight distro. All motor the H series can kill any all motor B series out there and if you doubt it then you need to do some research. The B18C5 is by far the best B series out there being fallowed very close by the B20 IMO and you stroke a B18C5 or a B20 and you will get around 2.1 liter displacement max on the street. With the H22 you can push upwards to 2.6 to 2.9 liter displacement and still drive it on the street with a up to par cooling system.
