Default usdm h22 swap tech

I am considering a usdm h22 swap into my 96 civic ex. Someone who has done the swap give me an idea on price, no labor just for the motor, tranny, ecu, shift linkage, axels...etc. I know i need mounts, but is there anyway that i could keep my power steering?, i dont need the ac, but i wanted to know if i could keep the power steering. Thirdly what is everyone's opinion on the h22 in general?

h22a about 2800 shipped from www.hondamotorsonline.com with tranny, axles, ECU, everything you need...except mounts which you should order from hasport. I think they have a special bracket that can keep your p/s, but don't quote me on that.

it's an awesome swap that I will be doing when I get some money

h22 swap in civics are nice, but just hope you have good tires, if not, you'll be loosing too much traction off a launch..
h22 in a hatch is very bumpy... car shakes like hell off the line heh

an excellent cure for this problem is a urethane suspension kit and Z10 radius arms. it'll drastically improve launches and all-around traction, as well as handling

z-10 radius arms dont fit on civics with h22s....the bar hits the oil pan on the drivers side....i paid 2450 shipped for a jdm h22..mounts and shift box were 900..i spent around 5k all together..did swap myself...about the traction thing, its not bad unless u want it to be...if you can drive u can keep it under control...duh i likes mine
