any H series tranny will bolt on directly, any H series clutch will also work as well as all H flywheels
the f22 tranny will bolt on but
1. it will not last
2. it will not be geared properly for VTEC
3. it will not last
the f22 clutch wont last long either
i am pretty sure that the f series clutchs will also work fine tho
buy a used h22a/1 or h23a1 tranny from me or someone else online, i can get you a good deal on one in great condition.

the f22 tranny is geared the highest which means poorer accleration.....and it's not designed to keep the engine in vtec, but should except for 1-2 and possibly 2-3, depends on how quick you are
the h23 tranny is geared higher than the h22, but it is better for acceleration when compared to the f22.....1-2 will probably drop you out of vtec
h22 has an optional factory LSD and is geared the lowest...better acceleration and designed to work with the vtec crossover points so that you stay in it when shifting at redline....
all are supposedly rated to around 250 lb/ft torque though....the h22 tranny shouldn't be stronger than the f22 tranny, and most of the parts are the same......but you probably won't like the acceleration that anything but the h22 tranny gives you.....it will be very noticeable....
