1st youll need to pull the motor then get a 10lb sledge hammer to pound int he driver side lower fender well.. due to the alt hitting.. once u fight with that and get it bent it.. you cant cut it out due to the structurell support for the front end. go on ebay and get hasport
88-91 h22a mounts there around 300 bucks and your shifr linkages will need mod. you cnat use the prelude linkageds due to the lenght but u can use half and half.. half civic and half lude.. thats all i know.. and for wiring goes. i an't got a dam clue on what tha requires.. i got a h22a swap comming up soon in a EG hatch but when i do that i can give u some pointers.. good luck...

You do realize that this swap will make your EF an all-drag, understeering, noseheavy pig, right?

It will require loads more effort than a B swap and won't necessarily be any faster. A B with the same amount of $$ into it will run circles around an H22 swap. Hell, at the local dragstrip I've beaten several H22 swapped Hondas with my lil old B16A CRX!

Not meaning to flame I just want you to realize what you're getting yourself into.
