well im going to be putting a h22 swap in my 98 civic coupe. ive always done swaps but w/ b series never before h.
right now i have the h22 motor in an accord.
im not sure what i need, I know i need to get mounts and was wondering if i could use the axles from the accord, what shifter cable do i use?
thanks guys, is that all i need?

go H2b... i have a 97' coupe and im going H2B w/ a hydro b16 trans..
if your jsut swaping a h22, you wil need a p13 ecu, obd2a to obd1 conversion harness so u can use your harness, just needs rewired.. go w/ hasport 96-00 civic h-series mounts, you wil need the back frame mount out of a prelude also, idk the axle situation because h2b im using a b16 trans w/ gsr axles. that little lsit might help a little, GOODLUCK!

other than having to maim your poor block! LOL by the bye any hate I have toward the h2b swap stems from not hearing about it until i cut a huge hole for the shifter, 2 1" holes for the cables, and repositioned my trans mount rendering my del sheezy no less of an h series car than a prelude LOL

^^ sorry I didn't catch that.
The h2b uses b-series linkage, tranny, and axles. Thus no fabbing is required for the shifter/axles.

Yes, what i meant was that i read about H2B after i hacked my **** all up for the h tranny, for me to go back to a b series setup it would require twice as much "unhacking" so ill just hate on them for now LOL. and unrelated, what you have to do to the H22 block to install the H2B kit makes me a little queasy...
All it takes is certain motor mounts, a special flywheel and an adapter bracket essentially.
Makes the two plug and play. it's totally safe and approved by the NHRA for racing.
It's totally legitimate.

To do it cheaply I made a list for about $3500 i think..
QSD kit - $700
b16 tranny ~$500-800
h22 long block - 1200
misc for the rest but that's the big chunks there.
