I agree. I've been fed this line that the Lude engines make handling w/ the Civics a nightmare, but I was flamed left and right when I stated this on PO.com. The fact is is that there are a number of hatches & civic coupes on the streets running H22s/H23s, and they are handling just fine. It is know that if you do this swap, you'll have to use non-civic axles, and you'll probably want to upgrade your braking capabilities w/ this engine, as Lude engines weight 175-200 lbs more than any b-series engine.

Peace,
