Re: (JasonBlackEJ1)
you say H22..i wouldnt' consider that the best swap because....you don't get powersteering and AC...everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but a best swap in my opinion is a bolt in lease amount of hassle kind of swap as well. The B18C is that swap...much easier than an H22 swap, you get to keep your AC, and Powersteering without having to get a custom kit, and you have great straightline power, and with the swap..you'll have closer to an "even" weight distribution which would provide for a better handling car. I don't mean to say an H22 in a civic wouldn't handle...of course it would...but i bet you with equal drivers...the civic with the b18c will own the h22 on the roadcourse. For certain reasons, better gearing and the better weight distribution. H22 in my opinion for a civic would be better for the dragstrip, but won't shine as well as a b18c or any bseres would on the roadcourse. But to meet halfway, i consider the b18c the best swap, because, it holds its own still down the dragstrip, doen't hurt the civic's handling, and is a much easier swap.
