Swap question

So I was calling around some shops today inquiring about doing a K series swap in my coupe and I got a really weird response to my question. The asked me why don't I do an H22 swap instead. I know what you are going to say. The guy doesn't know what he is saying. That's what I thought. Just a question though. Would it be possible? Has anyone heard of this?

atl01 will become famous soon enough
im sure its possible if you wanted to pay alot of money, there are no motor mounts for this, and the wiring would be mad crazy. just stick with the K swap.

sevenplaces is on a distinguished road
h22 would be an easier swap into (although still difficult) into a 6th gen. For any civic it i s too heavy though and you have to weld in tranny clutch plate and stuff.

Won't fit, you would have to make massive modifications to the car. Even if it did, the wiring would be very difficult with some problems requiring drastic resolutions.


Oh yeah, the H22 is heavier and less powerful than a K20. If you want cheaper, go K24 in about a month.
