i was wanting to swap into another engine and was honestly thinking of a h22a. i noticed a lot of accord owners had them and figured that it must be fairly easy to do (f22-h22 only a g difference?). but the money thing came into play and was wondering if there was another swap(b16,ZC if i am broke) that is a fairly easy one to do. it is a 90 accord.

B16 and B18 engine is not cheaper then H22, you can get H22 for $2300 when you need to pay $3500 for B18.
other thing, accord is much heavier then civic or integra, so you need torque to pull all that weight, and for that 156lbs/ft of H22 would be much helpful than 127lbs/ft of B18C1. if i'm not mistaking B16 tops out at 160hp and 111lbs/ft.
