Default f22/f23 crx

ok so i need some help.
and some opinions.

well i got a chance to buy some h22 crx mounts new for really cheap
and for now im just going to run my dohc zc in my crx but when spring comes i want to swap that out.
if i get the h22 mount kit will it work properly with a f22 or f23.
i can also get a cheap f22 vtec from a 95 accord .
and if that ever got old i can save up for a h22 or just do a g23 build.
i got a few questions
1. what axles?will ef h22 swap axles work?
2. i dont want to spend 500+ on a h2d/b or f2d/h2d adapter plate kit
can i use a h22 tranny or the 5spd accord tranny?
3.wiring shouldnt be too bad i can handle doing that,
4.i know most people will tell me its pointless and that im dumb for doing it
but the f22 can also handle boost really well,.
iron sleeves..

i want to see if anyone has done this ive searched but haven't found much .
any help would be appreciated.

i mean come on who wouldn't want a big block single cam lol.

also it looks like this engine makes plenty or torque and decent power, and the g23 looks like it would be a fun build. and in a light car like crx the f22/h22/g23 could be a very fun car. even better with BOOST lol.

I thought only the F23 had iron sleeves. Anyway I have every part you need for the G23 swap, hit me up if you need parts.

Yes on mounts
Yes on axles
Yes on tranny, even though they suck

F22a1 imo, headflow out the ***. Higher stock headflow than ported b-series.

so lets say i bought a running (crashed) 95 accord 5spd. i could use everything from it?
what spindles/knuckles would i use for the axles?
i know alot of people say the f22 is junk but it has potential and has already been proven.
like eighty-nyne said. it has a very good flowing head.
i want to start a f series into ef swap thread.
if im going to do it i will do a build thread.
to help others know what to do.
and how to work out all the kinks,

You would need to contact the motor mount Co. you purchase from as far as what midshaft/halfshaft and axles to use. This will determine if hubs need to be swapped. Everyones kit can be off a bit.

I wouldn't cheap out on no name mounts.
90-93 Accord F22 will bolt right up like a H22
94-97 Accord F22's would need the driver side engine bracket replaced for 90-93 if possible
90-93 Accord 5 spd Dx or Lx rear T bracket will need to be used or any 92-96 Prelude Auto or 5 spd

Engine of choice 94-95 F22 Sohc Vtec OBD1
or 90-93 Accord F22A6 or A1 Head, A1 Heads flow good.

I hope your CRX isn't clean. It would be a shame to destroy it by cutting a hole in the floor. This is part of the appeal of a F2B.
