Default new to civics. please help

so i've been looking for a good project for a while and i've narrowed it down to a '92 honda civic hatchback. however it doesn't have an engine. I've heard that you can put a single overhead cam engine from an accord and get amazing results. what do you think?

f22 = waste of money considering you're swapping in a single cam when most honda twin cams will be easier to swap in (and with the exception of things like the k20, b18c5, etc, cheaper).

Throw an H22 from a prelude in it and then you're talking. Welcome to the forums.

I wouldn't waste my time swapping in a single cam Accord engine. There are many better and easier swaps you could do, B16, B18, H22, etc....
