Civic hatchback swap (h22 head with h23 block)

Yeah, it's been done several times. I would prefer to just go straight H22 for ease of build though. Depends on parts you have available.

I have the H22 head and the entire h23 Engine, except from the head, I bought it.

I need to know which mounts have to change and how to adapt the h23 in my engine bay. And i cannot find pics about the steps
 
you'll need to buy a mount kit from a place like hasport.com that matches your civic cassis code (which you didn't give us). There's different ones for each generation.

the cable based shift linkage is the tricky part-- you'll need interior cutting and stuff to get the cables through
 
Oh yeah i forgot it, I have EH chassis. I entered the Hasport page, and look for the EG mounts for H-series engines. Does the kit have all the mounts that I would need to adapt the h23 in the engine bay?

yup, that should be all the mounts.

but as above, you'll also need the shift cable system and the axels are a hybrid mix of a couple pieces
 
the swap is alot of work but if you want a soild n/a car with good pull power its worth it. i had an cx eg with an h22 and it pulled harder then an 05 wrx haha... look on his face was priceless
