anyone know what i should do to swap the h22 in a 96 civic?

 

The complete changeover, motor mounts for this particular motor in a Civic (Place Racing or someone), 90-93 Integra axles..

 

what about the engine harness what all do i have to do ? and what about the engine bay ? do i cut any metal off to make it fit?

 

Doh, Need an ECU, custom axles, wire harness hack or just buy one and Hasport motor mounts.

In an EK I don't really think you cut anything except the shifter box.

I'm using my existing harness for my coupe. My friends H22 EH2 has a custom harness though.

 

where can i get the custom harness? and i'm not too big on swaps so what do u mean by wire harness hack ki3t?

 

W/ my swap in a EG I had to cut the tranny side motor mount off to fit the hasport mount.

I dont know if that is the same for an EK but im sure that is what you do for an EG w/ the new hasport mount kit.

As for harness you would use the stock ek harness and modify it?

 

Meaning you have to do wiring yourself. (If your no good then I suggest not to do it and purchase one.)

H22A into Civic information:
MERGING OBD1 CIVIC HARNESS TO H22A ENGINE:
- Take off and mark every single harness connector on where it came from/where it goes from both H22A and stock civic engine. Make sure you label them of where pulled the plug from! This will save a TON of time!

Mount Civic harness on H22A and measure/modify wire to be lengthened/changed as follows:

- Change fuel injector connectors to H22A type and add resistor pack from H22A harness to Civic harness (see diagram on page 4)
- Extend Alternator wires to reach the H22A alternator (match the pinouts)
- Lengthen wire that goes to the starter solenoid on starter
- Attach reverse light sensor wire to the new H22A reverse light sensor wire

O2 sensor (CX only) add 3 wires to O2 sensor and follow o2 wires and change to Prelude O2 sensor connector. And wire the following:

- WHT/RED wire goes to D14 which is O2 Sensor Input
- ORG/BLK wire goes to A6, which is Heater Control
- GRN/WHT wire goes to D22 which is Sensor Ground
- YEL/BLK wire goes to A25 which is Sensor voltage

VTEC wiring: This applies to DX,LX,CX models only in 93-95!

- Wire from the VTEC Solenoid to the A4 pinout at the ECU. Add the pin to the shock tower harness, and female pin at the female shock tower connector.

Knock sensor wiring: (mounted at the rear of the engine near the cylinder head)

Air Intake Bypass solenoid (secondary butterflies)

- Sensor voltage to the A25 pinout (or splice into the Yel/Blk wire connector at the driver shock tower harness.
- ECU Signal leading to A17 pinout on ECU

EGR (Exhaust Gas Recirculation) System: Applies to all model civics except VX

- EGR lift valve solenoid – sensor voltage (A25 pinout) & ECU signal to A11
- EGR lift sensor – sensor voltage (A25 pinout), ground (D22 pinout) & ECU sensor signal to D12

MOUNT KITS AVAILABLE:

- HASport mount kit
- Place Racing Mounts
- HCP Mount kits
