Default Engine Swap

I recently got a 93 civic ex 5spd. Love the car and driving it around but now I want to swap out the motor with a H22A 93 prelude engine. The B18's and stuff are to high in price for me as of right now. Anyway what do I need to perform this swap and can it really be done with any ease? Any information will be helpful.

dont get the H series engines. they are much too heavy. if you cant afford a B18 then get a B16, the B16A1 can be had for the same price if not less than an H22

aside from that, the H22 is extremly heavy...too heavy to be much of a performer

the h22 isnt THAT much heavier. its only about 85 pounds more than a B, but its physically alot bigger, so its a tight fit, and youll need to squeeze to get it in, esp with ac or ps. and you need to factor in a mount kit to the price.
