Fuel line for my h22 swap
I just pulled my d16y8 out of my car and am going to put my h22a4 in my coupe. Now when I took off the fuel line from the fuel filter to the fuel rail, It obviously isn't going to reach the fuel rail on the h22. What I am tryin to figure out is, will that little ring on the end of the line fit on the h22 fuel rail?

The fuel line will hook up to the H22 fuel rail just fine, but you're going to have to lengthen the line to get it to reach. The H22 banjo bolt will fit in the Civic ring.
Like ^^^^ said, an accord fuel rail will solve your problems, or an AEM one if you decide that's what you want. Personally, I found that it was cheaper/easier to lengthen the fuel line. I would consider replacing the fuel rail to be 'cleaner' work and therefore slightly preferable. But if you're like me and you really don't care about having a somewhat rigged fuel line under the hood, its probably cheaper to lengthen the line.

Cut the fuel line you have and put a metal pipe or something that will work in equal diameter to the fuel line. Put some hose clamps on it and voila, your done.

I got the aem rail and got a custom steel braided line and eliminated the banjo fittings. I just had them put on regular straight though ones.

Re: Fuel line for my h22 swap (hondaZvic)
yeah, the dx bracket holds the filter straight up and down. There is no angled bend like with the ex. I had to remove my filter bracket and move it to the left a bit and reinstall it in one of the single bolt holes. It works, but im sure the ex bracket would work much better.
