Your f22 transmission will work. You will use your f22 wiring harness and modify it to work. You can either grind the passenger engine mount to work or buy a hasport one.

Swapping in a h23a is pretty much the same as swapping in a h22a just need a different ECU

Well since your car is nonvtec you would have to add vtec. If I remember correctly you would have to swap out the oil pressure switch, rewire the crank position sensor, and distributor.
