Default Big engine,Little space!! Need help

<FONT SIZE=""3"">I have a 1992 civic lx with a puny b15b2 in it thats pushing about 100 hp. I plan to put a mack daddy h22a1 in it but i wonder if i can put such a big engine in such a little car without removing the little luxuries that i have in the car like my a/c. i will be using this car everyday and need an engine thats reliable as well as worth the money. If i do purchase ths engine what would i need to actually make this swap work b/c i heard this engine is also a little heavy. But is it worth all this extra work or should i just go with a b18c1 swap.Which engine is better for future add ons like turbo. Man oh Man what should i do with my little blue 92.
</FONT>

one more thing, Do you know of any reputable sites i can get these swaps for cheap.

I appreciate any help i can get,
Thank you

After all is said and done with the h22 swap, it is gonna cost around the same as an b18c5 swap bc of all the other things needed. You have to get custom mounts and cut the engine bay up some to get it to fit.I would go with a b series swap its not as complicated of a swap and b series have alot more aftermarket support.Now on the other hand if money is not an issue id say K20r FTW!!
