pros: no need to cut hole for shifter cables, or cut passenger engine mount braket.
better gearing if u get a b16/itr tranny.
cleaner shifts, i love the shift of a hydro tranny compared to cable.
and a whole lot more pros.
Cons: cant think of none
PS: for a **** load more info, use the search feature on the top right corner of any honda-tech page

go to quartersportsdrag.com...they have an awesome FAQ link on there for any model civic or integra you have for the h2b swap...im pretty sure for an EG your gonna have to raise up the hood like an inch or so.

i think that if they QSD made the kit so you could close the hood with out spacers the motor would have had less ground clearance for the oil pan. IMO i would much rather have my hood spaced then my oil pan taken off when i hit a speed bump. I own a EK though so im one of the lucky few that dont have to space there hood

i would go with the h2b the hood gap is not bad and it puts your axels straighter rather than at an angle. hence less broken axels but you have to cut some of the block off its not alot though
