hey welcome to the board, im a newbie too, the people here are really nice, they will help you if you have any questions so dont hesitate to ask.

 

sup nOobs. SEARCH JK "Welcome"

 

H22 is a common swap for a Teg, but a good one; and easier than others because I believe it uses the same mounts as the B-series do. Welcome, BTW

 

welcome to the boards and why do you want a h22...

 

My question is not why DO you want an h22, but why DONT you want a turbo? Good luck with your car!

 

I'd go B20, it rips! (biased opinion though!) WelKommen!

 

well i could stay with my b18, and open it up to 87mm, but i'd rather get a h22 and open it up. This car is only going to be for summer, i want to build a allmotor sleeper, we have so many civics and preludes around here with superghargers,and nos, i figure i want something different, i was thinking if not h22 ,maybe lsvtec, i don't know yet, i have read all threads concering h22 buildups, and lsvtec buildups,, and yes my new best friend is the search button.
what would you honda builders think would be a insane motor? money is not an issue

 

one more thing ,are darton sleeves any good?, i've heard nothing but good things about them,anybody with some past experience with them post your thoughts.

 

Yes, Darton sleeves are terrific, and many very reputable builders use them. As far as engine choice, there are many, although I'm fairly sure that the general consensus is that it's not wise to open a b18 up more than 85mm. You could go LS/VTEC with a B20 and an ITR head, if you have a really good engine builder. LS/VTEC has the reputation of being finicky (whether that's deserved or not I can't say). You could go turbo for about the same price, and as was asked above, I'm not sure why you've already ruled this out. A turbo'ed B20 is a scary thing. Or you get a stock B18C1 or C5 and build the heck out of it. Any way you go, do your research, ask around, and don't discount turbo until you know more about it. And hey, have fun!

 

let me ruin your dream for you. h22 in a da chassis is nearly impossible
http://www.g2ic.com
go there and search about it; you have to do chassis work+whole lot of other ****

Ps boost b20=cheaper then h22 in your car

h22 in a teg impossible?, thats funny i have seen tegs with the h22 swap done, its not impossible, just little extra work needs to be done thats all.

 

Well, do it and post as many pics as you can If they can put an NSX motor in a CRX....anything is possiable.

Lol, obviously you know a hell of a lot more than I do. Now I feel like an idiot for posting that **** above. Oh well.
