You'll need an engine hoist or a few strong arms to get it into the air then just let it drop but watch your toes!

 

Lol, damn noobs. Don't get an H22, to much of a pain. Get a search button instead. MUCH easier to do.....

Nah... just raise the chassis up high, slide the H22 underneath it, drop the chassis to the ground so that the rad core support is on the ground, position the H22 motor to the rear subframe and bolt on the rear mount, jack the car & motor up and do the side mounts.... all done

Use the SEARCH button and read. Thats what I did and found I didnt need to ask questions like this. (words of wisdom from a noob to a noob )

Newman, is it possible to jack the car high enough to lower it over the H22 or is a lift required?

Yes..... just need a full-size floor jack and jack it up from the side of the car (on both sides) or near the rear subframe to get the maximum height achieved.


BTW, just reading the topic name: <FONT SIZE="2"><FONT COLOR="red">dopping an h22 </FONT></FONT>
It reminds me of this pict when one of the trucking company dropped a H22 motor out of their truck at the terminal and it looked like this when they brougth it back:

 

What's all this talk about H22 swaps. Never heard of it. I might be interested.

 

WOW that is insane how lame ppl can be with handeling motors, they just dropped it and it looked like that when you got it back, Did they even insure it?

Yeah, I know. How is the handling in it?

 

what is an h22? is that some kind of automobile engine?
That would be great! My brother's truck needs a new engine!

yeah me too, my brothers uncle's sister had a friend and he says the H22 in a civic handles really really bad.

 

Never seen that pic before, almost made me cry....

By the way, mine got shipped out yesterday........oh goodie goodie......

 

H22 swaps are ok i guess. That is if you like tourque.

 

Check the link in my sig.. It's not TOO bad. just gotta rewire some stuff. Plus, I dropped it in from above. It was actually easier than I thought it would be. There's pics of it in the thread in my sig. Check it out!
