H22A engine and tranny from a 97-01 Prelude. Anything is possible. What are your goals and what are you doing with this car? More importantly, what is your budget?

I would think the simplest and cheapest solution would be a D16Y8 engine and tranny from a 96-00 Civic Si or Acura EL or the auto B series like mentioned above. A few simple boltons might get some extra power, but I think for your budget, a powerful, auto tranny equipped car isnt very possible. I dont believe there are many auto tranny Honda engines that would work.

Auto LS Vtec? Does the Vtec really do anything with an auto tranny.

i dont know i just really need dohc motor cant deal with my single cam no more v-tech should do something even in auto tranny well probibly will have to tweak ecu cause my d16 shifts 1st 3000RPM 2nd 3500RPM 3rd 4000RPM 4th allmost 5000RPM blah talk about stupid rpms lol if i tweak it it should be able to engage v-tech .. soo its either the h22 or the ls wich one is better out of those two h22 = alot of weight .. thats what ive heard
whats the diffrence in the two motors specs wise how much tq and hp..

--
my first thought was to throw in a k20 auto but started to hear tranny wont fit then other people say it will but hondata doesnt make a kpro ecu for auto these people give run arounds id really rather but a k20 auto also is total jdm can be trusted..? people on youtube say no cause they bought motors from jdm corp. and its knocking ...
