I have a 96 Civic Ex, i'm going to do a swap, just wondering what the best route is.
B18c1, B18c5, or H22a
I read about with the h22 i'd have to loose AC among a couple other things, well i live in nor cal and it gets pretty fuckin hot up here...so i'd like to keep my ac and other options of that sort. And i also heard that i'd need to upgrade my supension immediately because of the weight.
Any ideas on what the best way. I'm planning on doing some kind of custom turbo system with whatever engine i end up picking up, so anyone know how those engines handle turbo?
I've also heard the B series blocks handle turbos pretty well but i'm not in the know about the H series.
I also found prices for the motors...
B18c1 & H22a are both about $2500 and the B18c5 is closer to $5k. I know everyone says go with the c5 but how does it handle itself? Is it worth the extra $2500-2000? What will i loose with the engines? (Example: AC with the H22) Speaking of that, anyone know a way around loosing AC with that swap???

Did you bother searching?

This has been covered atleast 1 time a week for the past 2 + years.

All B series swap in easy, no loss in anything except a SOHC. If you plan on building a serious turbo go look into a B18b. Cheaper and you can boost it more on stock internals. Talking about boosting a C5 just makes me want to slap you for not searching about how any of this stuff works. I don't even know why i just wasted my time with this....
