A chap has an EG Civic with a tired engine. His mate has a strong H22A5 in a rusty 4th Gen.

I think I'm going to recommend that the H22 Civic EG might not be worth the bother.
until you go out in one, that'll change your mind.

why not just use a h22 box? custom shafts are fairly cheap now as are the mounts!

Exactly. Nowt wrong with using the M2B4 H22 gearbox...

my EK-H22 is fooooking rapid..and that's before I bolt on the turbokit

Even in standard form it's Prelude power with Civic weight. fully laden including me and the car barely touches 1200kg

I believe so. It wouldn't be unique, would it?

4ths weren't built with A5s, so that would be an engine swap.

Yep. No history to show when, though.
I don't know what the V5 says, if anything.
