h22 is like 200 hp and is way bigger, b16 is like 170 and smaller
an h22 in a 4th gen would be crazy it would probally ride like shit cause that is a big motor for such a little car but i bet i can work i have seen a couple and i mean if the 30 more horses are important... the price too the h22 cost more

its up to you your car and your money an h22 would be tight but if u want ac and power steering then go b16 and if u want room for a turbo or supercharger go b16 but if u want a n/a h22 go ahead and do it

There is a guy on this board who has put a h22 in a 90 si, pm 'frostee' I am sure he will tell you all about it.
 Hopefully he comes to the Central Valley Meet

B16 is better for a swap. H22 would be expesive, and like 96 said, your car would handel like ass. I got a B16a1 in my car and love it! I wouldnt get any other motor for the price. This is my motor in my car.

Power output on the H22 vary, the UK spec 4th gen lude for example has 183bhp. The same goes for B16#s 150BHP; 160PS; 170PS.
But remember the H22 weighs a lot more, affecting handling. If it’s for drag then it’s ok, you will get a lot more torque!!! The thing I love best about my Prelude 2.2 VTEC over the B16 siR.

thats cool
na not having power steering doesn;t really bother me at first i was like shit this wheels hard to turn when im not moving but now ive got used to it got easy and the best way to do it is to move a little bit then it turns a lot easyer shit i can still drive with only using 1 hand w/o power steering
