JDM H22A swap into 93 Civic
So uh...there is a hell of a steal H22A engine going for $500 cash in my area, and I'm wondering...should I bite?
How much extra am I going to be looking at spending to get this engine into my car? I have about 1k, and I am willing to buy the engine and wait to install it, that is if there really isn't too many negatives.
I can live without A/C, I think...but am i gonna die at the gas pump?
I really am debating about what I should do with my car...cause a turbo D16 doesn't sound bad to me either. The possibilities for a $500 H22A civic just makes me wonder though. I could probably sell my D16 engine for at least half the price of the H....

What does the H22 come with? If it's motor, trans. ecu, everything, go for it.
I think preludes get something like mid-20's mpg.
But anyway, if you're on a strict budget, the h22 isn't a good idea... after you get the motor and everything, it's still another $1500 or so for all the high-wear item replacement (like ignition, water pump, clutch, etc), mounts, and axles. You could always consider slowly piecing together an h2b though.
