H22a Build

[ch3ch3]

Hello ,I go by ch3ch3 i have an 96 civic ex coupe after debating about which swap to go with i have finally decided to go with the h22a. Some reasons being is that its a more rare than the b series swaps,Its better pricing on the engine thus the swap if you can do the swap yourself and Most importantly its stronger with more torque than the b series which is important because my ex is the heaviest of the ek's so the extra power and torque will help. With that being said i'd like for everyone to help and share your knowledge what is needed,what common probelms you run into and just any advice what so ever.I relized that i could have search forums which i have done but I'd like a more personal conversation and help If i have a question chance are it wont be answered quickly on a 2 year old post thats only looked at by other noobs that wants to learn. so please help anyway you can

I have almost the same questions, so I hope someone comes through with some help.

I have a 96 EX, have already ordered/received the H22 from japan and started the tear down since I am lacking mounts, and ecu, etc to actually put it in the car. Figured I'd throw it on the engine stand and get it all tore down, hot tanked, throw a couple mods in and dump her in the civic and hit the streets.

Surely wont be that simple so bump for some advice haha.
