Id say a search would be quicker. What are your goals? How deep are your pockets? Give as much info as possible

No... I'm not kidding. The price difference alone makes it a better deal. And since the k20 only has 5 ftlb torque more and 20bhp less... I don't see why you'd go k20? Let me know.

he didnt seemed worried about the price. the k20 would be lighter and i think would make more power with the bolt ons.

How much lighter is the k20?

And I LOVE saving 2-3K for my swaps.

if your into new breakthroughs and top of the line **** with low miles, go k20, has i-vtec and plenty of power/tq for a 92 hatch, h22 is a big engine and heavier/older and probably has alot more problems/complications than a k20 would.

unless your civic is RWD?

yeah, no doubt...so has the rest of the world.
i was just answering your question, "why go k20?"
because it sounded as though you were saying going k20 instead of the f20 is the stupidest thing in the world.

personally, i wouldn't go k20 or F20, or H22 in an EG, but that's off topic.
and i'm not a thread jacker unlike some people.

and

personally, ..this is just my preference.., but i LOVE spending more $$ for my b-series swaps just to save from the trouble of ******* with the drivetrain with a f20 swap.

1 I don't like sports cars... I like the s2000 for it's motor and weight.(which is why I really like the prelude as well)

2. I don't like k20 swaps because I'm one of the many POOR people trying to fix up their cars, and don't have money to waste on this.

I'm just putting a jdm h22 into a 93 prelude si.

I also have a 93 civic ex with a jdm d15b, swapped just because.

Okay, think about it like this. You put both engines in 2 different cars. Stock, the h22 does have more power than the k20. Go out and buy the 3 basic bolt-ons(i/h/e) for both, and the k20 would have more power then the h22 without a doubt.

If you have the money to do a k20, do it.

just reciently I watched a vid of a k20 stock setup in a hatch... wasnt gutted or anything, stock hatch, stock k20 in it... beat a lancer Evo in speed from stop and from rolling, it was passed pretty easily, even with 2 people in the hatch.

K20 can get great power gains from simple bolt ons.... and it weighs just about as much as any b series. perhaps lighter.

The price, is worth it. (especially now since the engine mounts are available...)
