Default F22block/H22 head, in a 4th gen.

So, hi.

I got a H23 head on my F22 block right now. But I want Vtec so I'm thinking about dropping a H22 head on the block.
I know the head to block surfaces probably aren't picture perfect, they won't line up perfectly, so I may have to tweak the headgasket.

Anyways, has anyone done this? I'm lookin' for someone that has done this swap probaby more than once.
I know the basics: H22 computer, h22 head wiring harness (IM and such), and I heard u have to take out the oil jet orifice too. (more oil getting to the vtec head I guess?) I've never worked on a car with vtec, so I think there's sollinoides and such, but I have no idea.

I've searched for days to try and find a write up with this swap, but came up short.
I've seen F23/H23, H22 block/F22 head, crap like that, but no F22/H22 hybrids. Any input?

Doesn't really help me out.

I'm lookin' for specs. all that tells me is that he was able to do it.
and he's using the f22b block, not the A series.
I got a F22a1 series block, and I'm looking for a h22 head. I know it's possible, but i neeed someone that knows the specs on it, like what headgasket to use, wiring i need, solinoides i need, etc... any inputs?

You didn't read very far. No one here's going to spoon feed you the information you want. If you're really interested you'll get a cup of coffe and read that thread and take notes on what applies to you.
