H22 swap What parts do i need???

i just bought a h22 dohc vtech motor want to put it in a 97 ek 4dr what parts do i need new to the game??

[godesshunter]

that is a complicated swap for someone new to the game...wiring harness,ecu,motor mounts, custom axles or hubs, a whole truck load of patience, wiring diagram from both cars, knowledge in reading and understanding a wiring schematic ...did it come with transmission? is it a type sh transmission? if it is, dont even bother with anything. it wont fit and no your b series transmission wont bolt up to the h22. definatly dont think you can do it in a weekend unless you have experience swapping. good luck and be prepared for stuff you didnt plan on.

its really not that bad

godesshunter is right about the type sh, motor, if it is one it wont work.

and if you have not done a swap before or have little to no mechanic experience dont do it! you will end up with a head ache and a lot of wasted money!

but as far as the swap goes i think you need:

the aftermarket swap motor mounts
extend a couple of wires
the correct ecu (p13, and whatever obd it is>> h22a1 is obd1 and h22a4 is obd2 etc)
custom or ready made axels
the header (if it didnt come with one...a b or d series WONT bold up to a h head)
h series tranny ( i have one for sale!!!! 100 bucks or best offer!! lmk)
thats all i can think of right now ill post up more if i can remember.



EDIT:>>>>>>THE SHIFT CABLES!!!, dont quote me on it but i think you gotta cut a hole to get these to travel through the shifter to the transmission right in civics.

thanks fellas for the tips and its an h22a4 and it's a base model I not the sh and I have almost everything except the shifter box and the ecu but I got it in storage until I find a better shell mines not worth the swap and I got a good price on a tuck and swap and a painted bay for 900
