h22 or b18c

well i know if go h22 i will have oversteer problems but i like to go fast in a straight line. is the swap any more difficult to do besides the motor mounts?

besides if i am reworking the suspension the oversteer can be addressed somewhat.

thanks,
Mike

I would go with the B18c if you have a civic or a teg. If you have an Accord then I would go with the H22. H22 in a civic or teg as a Daily driver is the worst swap to do.

It's not as bad as what everyone says it is ... OK I've never personally driven one but know 2 brothers that have an H22 in their EG ... And from what they say it's good daily driver but not so good as an AutoXer ...

But I agree with you on the B18C though ...

Try this for some good info - click on the non-recommened swaps

I want to swap a h22 into a 92 hatchback - it is very possible and i still might do it - right now i am undecided - i have a price from this guy racingworks but i hear that this is a high price - i am still researching -
