Default 96 Prelude--H22 or LT1 swap?

My stock f22 is nothing but a head ache,so I'll be doing a swap soon. I got around 3 G's to spend on the swap.

I think I can unbolt the body and put it on a GM frame,with a LT1,witch I think will be cheeper.

Or should I get go with the jdm h22?

Uhh 3 g's is not nearly enough for the fabrication needed to swap in an LT1, H22 is your friend.

OK cool LT1,fabrication won't cost me much at all,thats why I would be unbolting the prelude body and just putting on a GM frame.I know how to weld and have a few redneck connections.

You dont' just "un bolt" the body. You my friend have a unibody! Like previously posted...h22 is your friend! You should even have enough money left over for a decent turbo kit or something.
