I'm currently replacing my F22B w/ a F22A and it seems to be pretty seamless. I am stuck on what to use to get the transmission fully removed from the old engine... Here's a picture of the bolts: https://twitter.com/thegools/status/...783808/photo/1

I don't understand the concept that people have no money to fix their car yet they can build the H and play with the F while they need the car ASAP to work? Just drop in the same motor and go to work!

A yr ago, I got a jdm H22 from HM Motors. The shop stated it was the cleanest motor they've seen com thru. Quiet and runs well as well.
If I were you, I'd save up and get the h you want. If you're tight on money, do it right the first time, so you don't spend more on redundant/stupid shyte later. BTW along with the motor comes some extra cost, like wire harness,motor mounts, and possibly LSD, if you go for that option.

well congrats on kiddo #2, as far as your build, good luck as well. It'll take as long as it takes but do it right the first time. BTW I do have a harness and ecu, from a 97'h22 but you haven't gotten your motor yet. If you get one from Hmotors it'll come with one, and you'll probably want another non factory ecu, but let me know if you're interested in the harness.
