B FTW! like it better than a h... smoother imo. tranny is waaaay smoother.

I'd go H22.

 

B 4 Life.

Don't be a tool, get an H.

AC is overrated, but I sure do miss it

 

well im goin to keep a/c
if that calls for me keepn my b16
and plus my wife drivers my car here and there

 

Whether you choose the B or the H really shouldn't determine if you could still have a/c or not. Or at least it shouldn't.....

I'm pretty sure you need a custom bracket to run AC in an H swapped civic.

 

h swap is good but your axle will get fucked up quick... id go for b series. but with the H swap, you will make good power

With the older customized mounts, yes, if you buy regular AVID H series mounts or utilize an H2B setup they won't be.

 

i am puttin a h22 in a 92 vx hatch right now and the way i look at it is this....

a si or gsr swap vs a h22 swap money wise is pretty close IMO... BUT, 1.6l engine with 160hp or a 2.2l w/190-210hp...and yes i know the h22 is more work and believe me i do know..i am doing it now but i feel like the lil more work is worth the extra power and for me i wont be happy with a torqueless 1.6-8.... &lt;--- im referring to leaving the engines basically stock. if you are b00stin just stay b series...but n/a h22 civic is what im doing.

 

B Series is overrated, H22 is so much worth it.
The only thing you need to worry about is mounts and axles, shift kit. Everything else is the same, I would rather run low 14s all day than low 15s with a b16!

 

Both the B and H are good motors. Depends on what you ultimately want out of the vehicle.
I'd rock the H2B. Tight tranny with lots of ontap power and torque, easier installation than a full H swap.

 

go with the b series

 

i think im stickin with my b16

i was think with the cash i wud spend on putn the h22 in my car i cud have the cash and have my b16 done....and plus its my only car and i dont fill like cuting my engine bat mount thingy and drillin a hole for the cables..

and i already have my itbs half way done

 

Compromise. Do an h2b setup.

h22 &gt; itb'd b16.

You'll for a lot faster for less with the h22 with an n/a setup.

 

my buddy had a h22 in his EG and the ride was smooth and it had hella pull

dont know which h22 but it was quick
