man h22 are ****** huge in general they barely fit in the preludes themselves. yet it will fit its jus gonna be tight. most civic chasis are all the same. when i had a h22 my ac didnt fit. (oh well gotta sacrifice somethin for speed)

 

so an h22 would fit in a del sol? i know in a civic it will but i dont know about a del sol

Yes, it will fit but you will also have to sacrafice power steering as well.

 

power steering is overrated anyway.

Try posting something to help?

About the b16, some Del Sols have a b16a3 that came stock. So any B series will fit in there with no problems with AC and power steering.

Depends on the person I guess. I've had a CX w/out power steering for about a year now and I'm dieing to get my power steering stuff on.

 

its impossible, it won't fit. Power steering is for girls. AC is possible (look for HCP mount kit with ac bracket).

Yes, I'm sure you're very strong. But if you have to have incosistent steering to prove how tough you are then great.

I for one prefer it when my steering wheel does not loosen during situations where the front tires lose traction. But then I don't have to prove how cool I am on the internet.

how is it inconsistent steering? I have a much better feel for the road, especially at speed, without power steering. I don't have any problems steering when the tires are spinning. The only pro I can think of for having power steering is that it is easier to turn the wheels while stopped or driving slowly. But since you're so 'cool' maybe you can enlighten me.

 

I agree as far as having a better feel of the road. But, when you're taking a turn at high speeds and you induce understeer the wheel will be very loose, once traction is regained the wheel will snap back. With power steering this feeling is less obvious. If you're talking about drag racing though, I don't see any need for power steering. I guess it's driver's preferance, but I wouldn't say power steering is for girls.

 

I see what you're saying. I try to avoid tire spin while turning though, that's trouble in FWD . I just like to give cryptic/provoking answers to questions that would not have been asked had the OP searched or read the stickies at the top of the forum.

 

Oh, lol. I get it now. Sorry, you came of as kinda pretentious.

I didn't mean tire spin in particular. Any idiot would be doomed if they downshifted and floored it in the middle of a turn. Simple understeer will do the trick.

 

so ihatejdm your saying it wont fit ? cuz JDM-EJ1 said it will fit but wihtout ac or power steering

look at my sig. read my bio. I don't know about power steering (I never had it in this car), but AC is possible, although its a tight fit. Try JDMShit.com, look at the HCP kit with ac bracket.

It is possible, but from my understanding there is some modifying to be done so it's not a direct bolt up. IMO why would you have air conditioning? I took mine out in my EJ1, now theres a lot more room up there.

I agree, for cars, there's comfort then there is performance. When you do this swap, you pretty much throw comfort out the window.
