Im looking into swapping a H22 into my 98 civic. If found a good deal on the swap but what all beside the motor, tranny, ecu, and axles will i need.

 

bump

 

is the h obd1 or 2?

 

a harness to chop up and mix with yours if you don't have that covered already, a bunch of vacuum line, fuel line cause it might not reach your filter. You will also need a dual core radiator, i ran a single and didn't have issues but dual is recommended. uhhhhh...... mounts, id get a new thermostat.. rad hoses to fit... iono prolly more stuff i can't remember all the odds and ends i needed for my swap a while back.

 

shift linkage and shifter box. would also do the head gasket, water pump and timing belt and manual tensioner. its a tight fit your not changing a timing belt with that swap without pulling the motor.

 

around how much can you find this engines for?

 

not worth it go gsr just as fast and h22 is heavy

 

I found one a B18B1 w/automatic Tranny is it worth it? sorry man new to Honda-Tech

 

Your an idiot. H22 ways 35 pounds more, but has 40-50 more hp to the crank.

 

lol...took the words right out of my mouth!

 

stop posting this bull ****.

op check the faq and search a bit, there are quite a few threads that will give you a list of what you need and help you put it in.

 

thanks all. i will look more into this. this motor around here is cheaper than the gsr setup. will i be able to keep my a/c with this motor?

 

i belive yes you can, but im not 100%

 

Anyone recommend specific radiators? Dual core you say? You buy it for the application and adapt the hoses right? Thanks!

You will also need clutch/flywheel! Im trying to figure out what i want to purchase for mine. I need some tranny bolts too and the lower cover that bolts on for the transmission and the engine i think...

 

I'm not sure, but possibly (probably less than likely) - if it does fit you'll most likely need a different bracket. Also, the motor itself is cheaper than a GSR swap, but all and all they run about the same. You need quite a bit more parts for an H swap.

 

yes you can keep you a/c...

 

Yes you can but its going to be a tight fit. You will need a special bracket to hold the Civic air compressor such as one from HCP engineering, Place Racing, or Hasport performance.

You can reuse the Civic air compressor. Your going to need to modify the brackets for the a/c condenser because you need to make room for the tight fit. Then your going to need a slim fan like the ones being used on the cooling radiators and install it on the front side of the condenser.

The original A/C civic hoses can be retained although its going to be a tight fit. Its going to be hard and labor intensive but if you really want it then do it.
