Talking H22 or g22???

What would work out better? Swapping in a H22 or doing a G22 build. I got a f22b2 in my car already. What would actually be better and or easier? Been researching the g22 and looking at h22 motors already. Just want everyones opinion. Thanks

H22 makes more power and is easier. But if you are interested in a G22 I have a H23 head for sale.

I thought the h22 would probably be easier to put in then having to try and build the g22. I know there is a whole lot more performance parts for the h22 then for my f22b2 thats for sure.

I had a H22a4 in my car. Right now it sits with no motor in it. But I'm in the process of building a H23 VTEC.

H22a i suppose is the best, but h22a4(not out of a SH), h22a1 or h22a will do the job and only slight difference in power ranging from 190hp-200hp on them.

Alrighty, Would i have to use different motor mounts or would the stock f22 ones work? I know i'd have to use the ecu of the h22. Would it be a pain to put vtec in a original non vtec car?

You can either modify the driver side mount or buy the hasport one(i recommend buying the hasport one its like 100 and change). And if you are doing auto to manual you have to get the 5spd tranny mount.

I personally havent added vtec, but its only running 1 or 2 wires.
