need help H22A Engine Swap

[compwc18]

Alright, Im gonna be getting a 2000 Honda Civic EX... I was wondering first if the H22A Motor will fit into it??? Ive read that it will... I found a site that give you all the info to swap motors...

Also, if I was to swap the motor, and wanted to buy like different performance headers or something what would I say the vehicle is??? You know how they usually say 96-00 Civic EX/Si, or maybe 92-96 Prelude??? well I dont know what I would say under that part??

And if anyone would have specs on the H22A motor, that would help out a lot to...

Thanks, Jeremy

there are different variations of h22a. i think there are h22a1, h22a, h22a4 etc. the h22a4 comes in 97+ preludes, the h22a1 comes in 93-96 i think and the h22a comes in the jdm ludes, i think all years. also there is the h22a type s which got a lil more power. to install h22a into civic, you would need special motormounts like ones from hasport or place racing. stiffer springs, sway bars to counteract the massive understeer.

Here check these websites out; www.h22a.com and www.h22a.org both of them are good sites, the .com one is better I think, but is currently under construction, however it will still give you the swap info and the specof ALL H22's. Hope this answers some of your questions!

unless H22A.org has updated their site in the past while..they are very informative on the infamous H22 swap, but i do beleive their site is intended towards 4th and 5th gen accords, as they are my idol site.
