H22A?
 

Ok, I got a 93 civic 4-door 5-spd for $200. Got it from my dad's school. It has high miles, so I was just going to swap out the engine anyways. I was thinking...how easily would a H22A fit? Or, what other engines do you suggest? I don't want to put in a turbo JUST yet, that's my summer project to build an engine from the block up JUST for racing. So, I need some help one what you think I should do. I usually deal with Toyotas or Mitsubishis or 70's muscle cars. Thanks for all the help.

RE: H22A?
 

For the work you put into it, the results you get out of it, and the extent to which you can build it, you'll be happier with a B18C/C5 swap.

RE: H22A?
 

the H22 is about twice as powerful as your stock engine, but its also twice as heavy.

RE: H22A?
 

Go B18 much easier to find parts for and a little lighter than the H22.

RE: H22A?
 

yeah the B is quite a bit lighter, and is a cheaper block to build on too, along with the parts being more numerous

Sweet thanks guys. Pretty glad I got rid of my Stealth, that thing was fast, but damn, I had to call a junk Yard in Cali just to get a bumper. They don't make **** for that car. Not to mention, Civics are SOO much easier to work on. I had to pull off my fuel injection manifold just to get to 3 of my spark plugs....
