Default The "freankenstien G23"

So I have been reading up on this and thinking about do this swap but i was just wanting to see some opinions on this the F23 block with an H22 head. I dont see much people have this set up nut the ones that have it love it for a n/a engine. What are some ideas/opinions on this?

Just make sure you have prior mechanical experience, lol. I've known idiots that start these types of builds and they find themselves in a cookie because they have no clue what they're doing and end up taking it to someone and spending a fortune. Good luck on it though, I've read up on them as well.

I just read it on import tuner also. I definitely support it, the FRM sleeves in the H22 always bugged me so i prefer the F series but when i read about, i just thought, "the best of both worlds" what could beat that!!!
