Default wheres the H23?

i dont see this engine swaped in any vehicles. whats the reason? 160 hp and 156 tq sounds good to me and cheaper than other swaps. is it even worth doing?

I heard they have a weak bottom end (rods and bearings). I'm guessing it's true sense no one is really building them.

why have an h23 when you can have an h22. 200hp + vtec + closer gears and cheap, pretty good. h22's are built for their purpose as the h23 is just a daily driver motor for the bb4's. problem is h's are a tight fit in a EF chassis

H22 and H23 are basically the same swap.

I'd look either at a B-series or a K-series before an H-series but everyone has there own style.
