engine swap!!!!!

I have a '97 2.2cl with a stock motor and auto-trans. Looking to swap out to a Prelude 2.2L DOHC VTEC with 5sp manual trans. I know I need all the extras to install, such as cluth master, shifter, ecu, and motor mounts. Do I need to cut anything?

You should not need to cut anything, the h22 will use the same mounts, wiring will be your main issue

Do a SEARCH. It's been covered numerous times. U can use your stock harness, and it bolts right in, no banging on the engine bay unless you have a Skunk2 intake manifold or a supercharger.

As for the tranny swap, thats gonna require some cutting/fabbing for the 3rd pedal and clutch master/slave and linkages probably.
