are you mechanically incline? if not do some research on swapping motors, and when you're ready, instead of paying someone for the install, use the money to buy all the tools you need.

agreed, this is the biggest question you should ask yourself. imo, learn everything you need to know about swapping. take a look underneath the hood, and figure out what needs to be detached and so forth.

"too much work ETC those ********". Try doing the H22 swap yourself, and you won't say that after your done trying. The most practical swap is the B16a, and if your asking if you could do it in your garage I suggest you not do it. Doing it, and thinking about it is two different things - doing it in a garage or doing it in a field, its all the same.....just watch the weather report
