Default K22a? PLEASE HELP

http://www.jhpusa.com/store/pc/viewP...idproduct=2308

i was looking at this engine here and it comes with everything i need

Engine
Transmission w/ LSD 6 Speed
ECU
Axles w/ half-shaft
Motor mounts
JDM engine wire harness
Starter and alternator
Clutch and flywheel
Intake manifolds
Fuel rail and injectors
Shift cables or linkage
Distributor (if applicable)

but i never seen one in a 1995 CIVIC DX coupe, i really like this engine and heard a lot of good hype about it , but do any of you Pro's think its a good idea? i know labor will be about $1000 or more.. but will the work be way to hard i this pointless?

it comes with everything you need for the motor but you need ECU which is K-Pro, Motor mounts, a tune and im ptry sure there is more than that

Oh ok so its not such a risky swap then because i was also looking into the h22's , but the k series seems like its a better motor with it being a fairly new engine

honestly if ur new to this sort of thing id start with a b series in a eg its a very cheap and and easy swap and the hp gain is very practical for a begginer dont blow money on a type r or a b16 do a b18b with a b16 trans you will be happy with that for awhile cause if u dont know how to handle a k series you will just blow your motor right up so start cheap
