H22A1 replacing the F22B1:

I am tempted to install a tuobocharger into my 1997 Accord, though I quite like the idea of swaping the F22B1 for the 97 H22A1 . My question is "would the H22A1 bolt up to my auto trami ?, and if it will, could the auto trami handle the horsepower and for how long.

From my understanding the tranny should bolt up according to what people have told me, when I was thinking about the swap.

A '97 US motor would actually be the H22A4. It'd be OBD II so you'd want to do an OBD I conversion. Also, no H22 was ever sold in the US with a 4 speed automatic (just the 5G Prelude's "sport shift" which ECU wouldn't be compatible with an Accord auto) so you'll need a JDM H22 auto ECU. But ummm I guess you're from Spain? Or something? I have no idea what is/was available there...
