I got my h22 from them. good motor thus far. Just ask them for a leakdown test with you watching. only way to tell everything is sealing right

my buds got a built h22a from there, but when it was stock he beat the **** out of it everyday every week, even got impounded once, racing back and forth street or track for like 5 years. recently did the build, open up the block and bearings were clean, no scratch what soever on the bearings, he even reused the old bearings on the engine build, just rehoned the cylinders and added type S pistons and rings... head was also in perfect condition, just changed springs and retainers to skunk2s and skunk 2 pro2 cams, running very well stronger now. I say its a 12 sec motor if it was in a civic hatch or CRX, but too bad he chose the heavy prelude chasis to put the motor in. I think he ran like 14.10 with 23MH slicks.

Go with EngineWorld USA instead. I believe they have the B20B's on sale for $450.00 (long block) with start up warranty. We've purchased several B/H-series motors from them for the past 2 years and have had no problems. They also provide shipping.

engine world is also a very good place to buy used JAP engines, very good price compare to alot of other places. I bought a b16a and a b20b from there a while back, combined them together and had a very successful b20vtec motor. stock head and block did a best time of 13.4 @ 103mph....
