Looking into an H22 swap

So i found a wrecked prelude with an H22 at a local junkyard, and he said he will sell me the engine/tranny for $2000 and the engine has 55k miles, and no damage. (all damage to the car was in the rear and the passenger side rear quarter panel)

My question is, how hard or challenging is it to swap an H22 into a 1997 2.2cl? Is it a direct drop in? Plug and play? If not, what are the major things that need to be modified? If anyone who has actually done it could help me out, i would really appreciate it. I am seriously looking into doing this

P.S. Links will be greatly appreciated!

P.P.S I have a couple buddies that work at an engine shop up the street that volunteered to help me out for free, so i have an engine lift and all the tools i will need.

-Drew

I'ma email this thing I got, so don't delet it. I'll put "H22 Swap" in the subject line.

Oops...I sent it, but I forgot to put H22 in the subject. Instead, it says "Fwd:"

It's from Mark just so ya know.
