H22 is a bad choice for a CRX. I would suggest a B16 it's an easy swap and has huge aftermarket support.

Hey Spank102, try this link.. http://hybrid.honda-perf.org/tech/4gtech.html
I agree with Marc-OS, the h22 isn't a good idea for a swap. It is possible but it is a LOT of motor for that car. It depends on what he is looking for tho. Speed costs money, how fast do u want to go? Good Luck

It handles perfectly straight up to 130 mph - top speed so far. This car does NOT sit in the garage and look pretty. It drives around town and looks "surprisingly normal." That is, until the rear engine is fired up... |

I will agree with everyone. The H22 is a bad choice for a CRX. It's too heavy. Go with a easy motor like the B16 which is lighter and has more aftermarket support like Marc-OS said. Later down the road you can even turbo it and still have alot of power from it.

why even go with a motor swap when you could just rebuild your motor and put a turbo/supercharger on it?
