yes

i would stick with a b-swap if i were you especially in something with as short of a wheelbase as a delsol the H motor just seems like a swap thats harder than it's worth. just my .02

The new thing to do with h22's is to get an adapter kit from QSD or evolution motorsports and match the h22 motor with a hyrdolic b series transmission.

It's a killer setup and can be done with a little grinding of the block to fit it into a del sol.

Don't worry about weight, it wont make a lick of difference. You're car will handle the same.

Most of the del sol/eg guys with h2b's run 13's and mid 12's out of the box when the motors are running well.
