Hello everyone, question...Im assuming the H22 im installing is heavier than the F. Is this gonna cause any major issues with the front springs, should I go stiffer? I am running Ground control adjustable coliovers, stock shocks( will be changing those!), i was thinking i may have to raise it alittle. what do you guys think?

Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.
2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.
3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.
4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

having a H22 in your car is just like having a 12 your old kid riding with you in the front all the time. So i would say yes, but not noticeable.
Your going to want to be able to take turns with all the added HP, i mean most people drop their car.

Yeah, suspension isn't necessary for the swap. But if you want the power, you'll love the car after a good suspension. Transforms it.
As mentioned only a weight gain of like 50ish pounds. Probably less.
If you really cared just batt. relocate to trunk, cf hood, and like drop a few more pounds in teh front and well you're almost back to normal. Normal + 60hp.

Its not heavier...Its about the same as an F. Why does everyone think this? Its only 80 lbs if not a little more heavier than a D series. Thats not much weight for the suspension anyway unless your shit is blown.

The H22 block is light as anything. I can lift a bare block with one hand. The head weighs more than an F22A head, and the transmissions are about the same. The weight difference is probably no more than 20lbs, if that.
Putting 20lbs in the FRONT of your car is different than having it in the passenger seat... but it won't make that much of a difference. I never noticed any handling differences with my swap, and I was on stock suspension for a year as well.

If it's about 20lbs heavier, throw on a carbon fiber hood. Problem solved.~If everybody you knew jumped off a bridge...the bodies would pile high enough to break your fall if you jumped after them.~
