Re:f22b vs h22a1
 

That makes sense, not to mention that they're probably not meant for flexing. But I gurantee that an h22a motor in a light ass civic hatchback, is like throwing a big block in a focus :P

don't worry about the sleeves, the f-series has iron sleeves and you have to be a real ------- to break one. I have never seen one go (18psi... ring lands went, but not rods or sleeves)... anyone who sleeves an accord motor should do some research... GO WITH UR STOCK MOTOR!!! if anything, invest in a better/higher geared tranny & clutch... and pistons/rods... you'll be able to boost over 20psi safely with that setup... i'll take 1.3bar over an h22 w/ 10psi anyday
