I'm sure it requires an adapter plate, that's something the other guy either didn't realize or failed to mention. There's nothing special about the B16 tranny when compared to all the other B series tranny's so unless that particular B16 tranny case decided to reshape itself mysteriously overnight, there's no way it will bolt up to an H22 without using a bell housing adapter.

adapter plate.
i dont see the point of putting a tranny that will cost more when buying a used one as compared to an H series tranny.

Thats what I was thinking, cause I was following the thread on the custom adaptor plate

Well, it is a bit smaller for crx and custom installs and the the gear ratios are better than the h trannies....but since I don't ahve any personal experience and am just going off what i read on here, I'm not trying to defend the point 100 percent

well the b series trannys are built alot better then an h series.Plus you have got a rod shifter appoused to the cable ones which everyone knows who has had an h series swap knows how much those cables can be a pain a some times.So the advantage is the gearing ratios of the b series trannys and you can on throttle the **** out of them and not have to worry about cables binding up, plus the vtec trannys are duall sycronizers.

well i own both H and B series cars, and i honestly dont think that B series have better ratios...they do for B series engines, and they do have slightly more variety in gearing but i feel the gearing in the various H22 trannies is better for a stronger toquier engine.
and with new cables that are properly run i havent seen any kind of binding issues.

tell that to bisimoto, ask him the reason he went to a d series tranny.He will tell you that after over 100 races no problems with the tranny as opposed to the h and f series trannys, he was going threw so many every season.So yes they may be desighned for torquer motors but they still don't have the durability as a b or even a d series tranny.And i don't care what nobody says, a b series tranny fells a hell of alot better when driven hard.Way better then an h series.I personally want to do an f23 with am h22 head, and a cable b16 tranny, that would be a awesome hybrid.

umm Bisi afaik kept teh D series since he already had a LOT of investment into the D series custom gear sets.
i havent ever heard of him using the F series tranny at all. in fact in teh Drag sport magazine he was quoted as saying he stuck with teh D sereies tranny since he had the custom gears all ready. would you like me to scan teh article and post it perhaps?

Yes you are exactly correct that is the reason.I built the motor mounts
for his D motor and started to do the F motor mounts and adaptor plate .But I moved to PHX and couldn't finish them.And I also have seen a H22 with a hyd. B-series transmission.

No **** I have one at work.The B-series trans bolts straight up to a H22 with no problem.And the flywheel, clutch and throw out bearing all work
perfect.Oh yeah and the slave cylinder.

RS machines was working on a adapter plate for a b series trans to a h22 block. I called all the time to see the progress on the kit with the only response of extended dates. Imagine a h22 into a ef with a b16 trans. You wouldn't have to worry about axle combinations or cutting into the unibody for the shifter cables. As to smoking third gear, who cares. Who roles to the track on street tires? Anybody doing so is not fast or wishing they brought the right combination for traction. h22, B16 trans, light Ef,=goodtimes

I can't remember the website, but there was a guy on it who had a picture of a b-series tranny bolted up to a h22, If I can find the website i'll post pics later. But I dont know if the the guy just rigged it up for the pic or really did it. I must find that website!!!!

Nobody asked ,But what I did was put an h22 trans in the mill and cut the bell housing part off the trans .Then I did the same to the B series trans .Then i took
a line up bar and bolted in the main caps of the H22.Then bolted the one half to the H22 block.The I used the line up bar to line up the B series trans half and welded them together,And you cant even tell its been done.

It seems to me that the primary advantage of using a B series tranny would be the relative ease of getting a getting a limited slip B series tranny as compared to a limited slip H series tranny. The offset cost of selling the H tranny, buying the LSD B tranny, plus an adapter plate and a mount, might indeed be more cost effective than buying a Quaife for an H and paying for someone to put it in, or having to go through the hell of tracking down a Euro R tranny.

I know some Prelude guys that are always complaing about the lack of durability in the H tranny.

Also, in a swap, this allows for nearly perfect axle angles.
