Default H22A or No??

Ok, I can get a JDM H22A Engine Only with free shipping to my door step for 900.00. but at the same time, I don't want to because What if I need the money later for auto tech class??? or Do you think Stafford loans can cover all my school cost and I should just order up the h22a???

Should I get the H22A or No? Man, this is hard!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

One thing I hate about school! I just want to get the H22A for now and slowly work on the engine by replacing all the seals, Manual Tensioner Conversion, etc. Once i save up enough for a engine lift, then i'll perform it, hope to get the swap done in 2-3 days when the time comes since weather is gonna be nice out when june, july, and august hit.

That's what my girlfriend told me too. lol I'm afraid the F-Tranny isn't giving me all the power that the H22A can produce on the street.

Sorry, i'm not planning on parting out the motor. I'm planning to let it go for 600.00 just the engine alone. 450.00=motor, 468=bisi cam and all maintenance too.
