I want to do a engine swap on my 94 hatch, how difficult is it to put a h22 engine in my hatch after I save to get the engine tranny, motor mounts, harness and I dont what else.... Could you give me as much info as possible so I can know what to exspect when I purchase the engine and tranny.

Its a pretty straight foward swap into that. Youll need motor mounts, engine, transmission, axles, shiftlinkage, and harnesses. Are you doing it yourself or is someone else doing the swap.

I'm going to take it to a local shop to get it done....

If youve got all that then it should be really straight forward for them to drop that sucker in. Theres nothing really custom about that swap so you should be good just remember the pics when its done

i dont know man, i have personaly put a h22 in several cars and its never that easy. you have to think, the stock motor and trans dose not weigh that much the h22 and trans weigh alot. your guna have to beef up the front suspension or the front is going to sag, alot. plus the crank pully is going to hit so you have to cut or bang room for it to fit. it sound easy bt its not. its hard to dent the engine bay, but other than that its not that hard, oh and the vtec, the wireing is not to easy ether. that is if your car is not a vtec allready.

Very true I forgot about the pulley issue. I have not put one in a EG or EK put Im putting one in my EF so I guess they are a lil diffrent. There is a weight difference but its not as significant as most think really. I totally agree about the wiring. Im not even atempting it on mine Im having someone else deal with that. You might have to relocate the battery to the trunk Im not positive on that model.
