Default F20C civic Swap

I am in love with the AP1 s2000 engine, and was wondering if it is possible (within a reasonable budget) to swap one into a civic (eg)?

If you can create your own one-of-a-kind FWD transmission to bolt onto the F20C or find room for a tranny tunnel and fabricate a custom rear subframe for the rear end on an EG for a reasonable budget... You're a god to me.

directly? no.. but you could have something like it.... try lookign into a high RPM built f20b or h22

it will cost major money though.

i suggest just sticking with b series or buying a s2k

errr. i dont think the k-series has reached the point where it is easily obtained as a b or as cheap. buy a b18b and put in some forged internals and built head. im not positive on the price of a k swap, but im sure u could build a b for much cheaper

5500-6k is the average for a full k swap, then you need the 500$ mounts and a lot of spare time to cut out the stock mounts and switch up the fuel return and wiring. Totally not worth it untill prolly 2007.

I think people have tried the F20B transmission with it and it bolts right to the block. As for mounts, linkages, and other stuff you're on your own.
