Default K20 in 5th Gen Accord?!

My friend got his hands on a wrecked rsx-s engine w/ everything you'd need for a swap. he has a 95 Accord LX, he wants to swap it into his car, (200 hp/ 142 tq). I'm wondering can he actually do this? if he can do it relativley easily I'd like to know. He got everything from the car for $1200. So is this even possible to do cheaply?

It would cost you well over $4000 to do it.

Yes, but obviously the transmission takes care of that unless you're implying that RSXs drive backwards.

Best bet is to sell that engine and with that money put that toward a h22, or turbo, or anythig that is of serious power.
