theres not much difference. if i remember the over all difference between a b and an h22 is like 25 lbs. which isnt much. it just hangs low. i mean if your gonna just leave it n/a then the h22 is the way to go. nothing like 13's all day with just a bone stock motor

Even with the $1100 in the D its still very limited. I mean how many built 500hp D's are out there compared to 500hp H's? and plus the added torque

The weight making it handle like ---- is a myth.

yeah but I bet the H at 8psi made the same HP as an LS motor at 14psi.
