Hey people whatsup? Well I was thinkin I have a Civic EX 97 an I have being thinking about and engine swap. I have been thinking about and H22 or a B16. Which one will give me the more power and better performance? Which is the hardest one to do? An which one is the more expensive to do?

Thanx for your help

h22 will have tons of more power, but more work is required, b16 will be the eaisest but will not perferom as nearly good as the h22, it all depends on where you want to go with it, and how much money you have to spend.

I loathe the b16, get a b18, any b18 vtec or not. Sure h22 have plenty of power but its ALOT of work to het it in there. A b18 will pretty much bolt right in and give you plenty of performance.

b-series have way more potential...however the h22 comes with more power stock. as far as pricing goes....b16 will probibly end up cheaper depending on where you get ur shit.
