h22 is an easier swap, and its less of a wiring headache.

The K20 swap is possible, if you pick up the latest issue of Honda Tuning they have a tech article about swapping a K20 into a DA Integra, so you might want to check that out. I'd say go for the K20 if you can get it for that cheap. It's got tons of potential as far as tuning and modding possibilities.

I hope you realize though that the tranny that's in your car is not going to bolt up to either of those motors, so I hope your prices are including transmission as well as just the motor.

no one said it was impossible. i just said the h22 swap is easier and less of a hassle.

Yeah I know that, and I agree with you too, I was just trying to tell him that Hasport has mounts to make the actual swap easier. But yeah, unless he's going to buy a conversion harness then the wiring will probably be a hassle. Also, I think the DA Integra has a cable driven speedo while the K20 has an electronically controlled speedo, so you'd have to find some kind of solution for that as well.

Just some things to consider...

Id go with the k20 if you can get it at that price. Check out K20A.org .:. The K Series Source . Honda / Acura K20a k24a Engine Forum - Powered by vBulletin for info on k swaps.

i too would go K series, but its not as easy as you might think. Hasport has not released K into a DA mounts yet, probably wont for 6-8 months.
