x2 A good h22 w/tranny would cost that alone. not including the other parts you need. Are you paying someone to do this or are you doing it yourself?

Not really. You're going to need the same basic parts for any Honda engine swap. Engine, transmission, axles, mounts, ECU, wire harness, radiator hoses.

Just with the H-series you're going to need aftermarket mounts. Wiring might be a little more extensive, but that could depend on the engine and car choice.

i was looking into a h22 swap for my civic but i went b series swap instead because its cheaper but an h22 swap is very nice and it needs more work than any b swap. it would be easier if you get the wiring harness that matches the engine and swap that main harness into your car IF YOU DONT MIND SOME ELECTRICAL THINGS NOT WORKING!!! you would be able to do everything yourself if you go this route

I don't think that's right either.

A radiator support would be the same as the core support, which is the entire front frame piece of your car.

This, the whole front part:

Why not just a B16 if you're going for an EK4 replica?

The OP never mentioned if he has a real EK4 that he wants to put an H22 in or if he thinks his US Civic i an EK4.

Either way, there was no mention of an "EK4 replica".

i have looked into the h22 before. what you would need is a slim fan for your radiator since the headers of the h22 wont let you have the fan. as far as mounts,ecu,and axles it would be easier if you put the h22 body main harness so you dont have to repin any wires
