Well Now that I have some what started my project car, I got a car
that is going to be my project car. It's a 91 civic si, that Nick was
kind and sold to me for a good price (thanks man). Well So far I have
been wanting to do a swap, which is a H22 prelude engine I have looked
in varies places to get one. As we all know they are not cheap, the
cheapest one I found was $998.00 and plus an additional charge for
shipping is $250.00, so that's were they get you is the DUMB shipping
fee. this is the website
http://www.jdmenginescorp.com/engine_details/honda_honda-prelude-motor-jdm-h22a-vtec-obd1-engine-5spd-trans-ecu.
Also the motor mount that I want come with everything that is needed
to go ahead and make this motor swap easier. they come from this
website but I'm still debating that if want to pay this $800.00 price
for the kit, so I'm doing more the research on the kit. So far Right
know, the progress on the car is Alex and I pulled out the motor and
sold it (thanks Alex and Juan for your help)!

Doing a little more research I found out about the traction bar
situation? I was talking to this guy on one of the forums called honda-
tech.com, well the situation is that i dont need it. So now I can Not
spend the $800.00 on the Full kit from the company that I was In
recognition For the swap. So I'm happy about that so now I can look in
to buying the the cheap one (in Price, not material). Also there Is a
Motor that I'm wanting to get that the cost is 1000 but I'm talking to
him to lower the price because there is a little thins that make the
engine not complete so at least the goal is at $600.0o.

Hey Gordo, I went ahead and looked for some good swapping materials.
On this Hasport site below.
http://hasport.com/store/index.php/mounts/civic/ef/h-series-ef/efh1.html
You can get the best mount for the h swap and they say on the bottom
that they have everything else to swap that engine in from drive axles
to clutch lines to fit perfectly. You should look and see what else is
there for you.
