Has anyone heard of an H22 or B18C swap into a 7thGen? I know of a shop that said they would make it fit... might be an idea as K20's arent worth the bucks at the moment... any thoughts? anyone done this? any motor mounts avail for these swaps??

it'll fit but you cant put an older engine in a car... the engine has to be newer than the car....

just curious, theres a shop in toronto that says that they can fit an H22a in my car if i wanted as the K20's where pricey... i figured someone might have done this already

Any B series motors should fit, don't they have the same mounting points as the D series motors? But anyway, I'm not too sure about the H22. Technically, any shop can "make it fit" haha. And even though the idea of a H22 would be really nice, if you're planning on getting a K20 swap sometime in the future I think it would be best just to save up for it, or just pickup a B18 or something. But then again, why would you go for an older motor? Good luck!

Nobody has done it... Why? Cause:
-H22's are heavy lugs of crap!
-they respond poorly to mods
-and are poorly designed
-PLUS i dont think you come CLOSE to realize how much work it is to put an H22 in a 7th gen... Just go K...

All motor doesnt pay unless you go K!

doesnt hasport make motor mounts for a b16 swap in our cars. so if i'm not mistaking you can put a earilier model engine in a later model car.

I don't think they make such a set. At least not from reading the Swap Combinations section of their site.

No Hasport does not make B series motor mount kits for our car.

The fact of the matter is, you can't put an older engine in a newer car. The engine has to be available the same year the car was built. End of story.

if ya'll wanna get technical about i have heard of an h22 swap into a 7th gen! AEM's yellow front wheel drive 7th gen grag car has a turbo charged h22 powering it. it stats: 2001 civic best et 8.12 qt weight 1,650 engine: 2.2l h22 prelude engine, engine management: motec m48 pro, 800 and up hp

Yes, but it's a drag car, which means the whole chassis was stripped down so basically the only 7thgen components left were the basic body style and maybe some pieces of frame. Also it no longer needs to conform to any kind of street/highway laws. That's like saying "I've heard of someone putting a jet engine into a mustang". How much of the original car is left?

Not really... what will you use for a wiring harness? OBD2 first gen to OBD2 second gen... I dont think so! You guys arent listening H22's are heavy and respond poorly to mods...
