do you already have a h22? An h22a, h22a1 or h22a2 are going to be the best bolt in swaps for a 4th gen prelude. Then again you could always do a h23 block with an h22 head as suggested (good turbo motor). Here's everything you would need for that conversion. VTEC head, complete: cams, gears, rockers, valve cover, VTEC timing belt- VTEC has more teeth on the belt than the Si does,VTEC water pump, VTEC auto hydraulic tensioner for timing belt, VTEC manual tensioner, VTEC head gasket,VTEC lower, most inner crankshaft pulley, (96 is different due to sensors) VTEC intake manifold, VTEC exhaust manifold, VTEC ECU/ECM, VTEC injectors - if you don't change these over, then once you plug in the ECU/ECM you will keep blowing the 'EAT ECU' fuse when you crank/start the car,VTEC spark plugs and wires, VTEC water pump pipe -black pipe that runs behind the head from the water pump to thermostat housing-. but if you already have an h22 I'd stick with that motor.
