No, go with the H22A vtech.  as long as the car already had an h22 or an h23, it'll be an easy build.  If you have an F22 it will require some extra wiring, but it would be much easier than trying to put a B18 in it.  It's important to note that the H series engines were cast with a special fiberous aluminum alloy to save weight, as a result they do crack easier than other engines, but you should be able to put plenty of power through it.  Here's another tip, don't take any advice from a person who types in all caps and has no concept of the english language.
