it works like an ls/vtec. you would need the ecu, head and etc.

WAY more trouble and money than its worth, if it would even work... Go to a junkyard and pick up an EX engine for not much money at all.

H22's with trannys are somewhere around 2000-3000 USD depending on the mileage.

im telling ya accord owners, you just dont know what your missing with the h22 untill you get it. you'll never regret the pains of doing a f22 head swap. you'll get MAYBE 150hp out of the f22, where the h22 is 200 out of the box.
