once again someone is going to fooken say "if u have the money, yes".

No you can't without a gang of custom work. No engine mounts, not enough space (??), and other issues.

I think the only H22 swapped 7th Gen Civic is the yellow AEM Drag Racing one...

This is just the beginning. I think we're averaging 2 engine swap questions per week. Not as bad as the Turbo ones...

Like they said you will need custom mounts but mostly your problem is going to be that there just isn't enough space in the engine bay. If you have the money or skills to extend that you can get it in. for legal issues you will have to get the 01' prelude engine if you can get ahold of one. depending on where you live, it may of may not pass emissions.

Sucks you have to pass the ULEV emissions in our cars. We can only be ULEV or better. I know that the H22 will not pass emissions, esp here in california. There should be a 2.4 L iVTEC engine coming to america in the Accord. Try dealing with that. I heard from Japan that they fit in the Integra. Not very good for circuit racing though, just drag.

jus think....u got a 2001 civ (at least 2001) and u want to put a 2000 engine..
knowing emisson laws and what not, the engine HAS to be newer than the car.
Thus bringing us to the conclusion that no, not a 2000 or below engine can be legally placed in the bay.





but i'd still like to see it happen!
