  • D16z6 or F22(2.2)

    hey what's good ctv... i have a 95 eg hatch.. i just pulled the old engine, but i wanna stay sohc for da summer.. i'm stuck on what swap to do... the z6 or f series(accord engine 2.2) my main concern is there a big difference in difficulty between completing one swap over the other...? i mean i can pay 850 for full accord engine n newington used auto wants 1100 for a z6 wit SI tranny... idk just looking for some opinions on what would be cheaper/less complicated in the long run... keep in mind i'm trying to get my baby back on the road around May.. thanks

        z6 wuld be alot easier also if u want better handling the z6 is better also because of the weight distribution the f is more heavier which throws its balance off but is good for quartermile runs

          ive never done or even researched f or h series to be honest. but i thinking learning the 2.2 would be a good idea because later down the road you can put an h22 vtec head on it. making much more power than a shitty single. :)

                    u think u can have him pm me wit some info on the swap itself.. im pretty sure if i go f22 i gotta get h series motor mount wit conversiin kit, n im pretty sure i gotta get 90-93 integra axles to fit.. im not completely sure so see if he can pm me wit all the details.. im pretty sure i can just drop a z6 in, plug n go...

                      1100$ sohc ftw. That's definitely what I would do. It doesn't make sense to slap an ls in there and save a few 100

                          he doesnt have a CTV account but yuh gotta get an adapter plate as if you are going h2b, same with the mounts, u use the same axles as the tranny you are using also

                          f22 cost more money then a z6 swap but its worth it in the long run

                            stay D series, obviously you're new at this. the f22 swap will cost more and be much harder for a person such as yourself. with the z6 you can drop it in and go. if you were more experienced i would tell you to go f22 get the DOHC head put it on there, get and f2b kit and put a little boost on the f series but that is not the case. however for the price you're going to pay you can just put an LS swap in the car and put a vtec head on it later on in life. just my $0.02

                              Either stay with Z6 for affordability wise. The F22 is extremely close in HP numbers but more torque from the F22. I feel the only time you stick an F or H in a civic it should be a F2B or H2B set-up. Unfortunately it is much more expensive.

                              Z6 imo
