Default h22 crx wheels question

ok here is the deal i have seen that there are 72 threads about this swap.Ihave a few questions that wasnt asked/ i have an 1991 crx dx pulled the engine out, im using the E.S.P mounts and the traction bar. the engine that is going in is a 1998 h22a4 usdm, i pulled the shifter assembly out of a 1994 PRELUDE.I am using tein coilovers so i can adjust the height if needed because of the sheer weight of the engine. now the first question is should i use 15 in wheels or 16 in wheels im going with a set of j mags, i didnt know if i should use 16s to keep everything off the ground a lil bit more.Alsowhen doing the crank pulley should i shave the stock or use a unorthodox single drive pulley.the 3rd question is can i use a stock exhaust manifold until i get my hytech longtube header? thanks in advance

what sheer weight your talking about? its only 50lbs more then a b-series

for the wheels its up to you its your car not honda-tech car

for the crank pulley its up to you
im using the unorthodox single drive pulley cuz i paid $50 for it (note it came out of a 9sec turbo h22 eg civic )

and yes you could use the stock header

Use 15" wheels with 195/50-15 tires, or 16" wheels with 205/40-16 (or 195/45-16) tires. Your choice.

And don't use oversized tires to raise the car!
