Default h22a swap into a crx si... need info and lots of read up information and just help

I need lots of help and read up info on how to do a swap with a h22a1 dohc motor into a 88-91 Honda Crx si. Someone tell me what needs to be done and what work is involved such as what axles should I use, what suspension should I use and what not. Let me know I'm getting a crx si this week and probably going to throw the motor in the next two weeks. Someone told me welding had to be done and I need to know with what and where. Thanks for all your help.

you will need Place Racing mount kit, shift linkage, axles and cable actuator - about $1200 - you will need the transmission and ECU for the H22 - you really should get the Place Racing front crossmember to free up space - since the H22 is quite a bit heavier than the D16A6, you should beef up the front suspension

coo thanks for the info. Is there a website where I can get place racing mounts? Also can I use the axles from a h22a prelude a 95? Will that work? What vehicles can I get a cable actuator from and what does that look like? Also can I use the h22a tranny that I have? And a p13 Ecu that I have? I'm going to upgrade my ecu cuz I'm going to do some motor mods to the engine that I'm doing. Thanks for the info you guys.

Here you go.....https://honda-tech.com/zerosearch

Do an archived search in the CRX forum for an H22 CRX, there is a lot of info about what you guys want to do......
