it's not designed to absorb torque the WAY the h22 puts it out...
if civic front ends couldn't handle 200+ hp and high torque then NOBODY would have a fast civic...
It doesn't matter if the power comes from an h22 or a b18 built up... or a b20 whatever... it can handle the power it just doesn't like the way it's applied by the h22....
which has also been realitively dis-proven.... there are LOTS of dudes who LOVE their h22 swaps... and have had NO problems... well... having to do with this particular issue...
I haven't heard of ANYONE ripping their chassis apart...
