I want to get an H22a for it, but I heard I have to buy some extra equipment for that engine to go in... mounts I think. Somebody told me there were like $800!!! Is that true?!?! Let me know!! Thanx!

Well, I would recommend staying away from the h22. Yes, it is a awsome power plant, but it really is not that great for a HB. Your car will not be good at anything, except for driving in a straight line.

Any motor, other than a D series motor, will require different mounts to be able to fit. A b16-b18 would be a good motor to put in. If you do that, you will be looking at around $2500-$3000 for the swap, and labor.
