Im thinking about getting an engine swap for my 96 civic Ex.

but im stuck between the B16 type R
and the H22.

which one would you perfer?
and why??

 

H22 = much cheaper and more potential.

X2

 

H2B

 

i heard that a h22 swap ends up costing more.
cuz you have to find axles for it since the axles from a prelud wont work
because they are too long.

also its more labor.
but i dont know
correct me if im wrong

 

get the h22 with the h2b kit which allows you to use b series trans, axle, and shift linkage

that wont work cuz i got a d16y8 under my hood.
so a B series "adapter" wont work

 

H duce will be fast in the end no matter what u do to the b16 if u do the same to ur H

its a plate that allows you to bolt a b series tranny to an h series block, you don't use anything from your d.

and btw, i think you can find all the info you want in the HYBRID forum.

and a CTR b16b is a waist of money, build a poor mans type r for cheaper, with more displacement
