Default prelude thoughts

i just wanted to know if i could get some help on my problem,
i have a 95 honda civic and i am planing on doing an engine swap with my car to get the little sohc out of there. i was wondering if there would be with a problem with throwing a h22a prelude engine in it, but i was told it would be to heavey for my car. and this would affect my cornering. but i was also doing contemplating on doing the ls gsr conversion.
what would be in my best interest?

thanks a lot

Robert

What affects your cornering the most is a lack of anti-sway bars
and having springs that are too tall.

If anything, a heavier motor sits the car slightly lower.-Bob
