www.inlinefour.com is also a good company to check out for motors and transmissions.
www.hondaswap.com has a very detailed database on conversion info.
Also, I'd recommend Mike Kojima's excellent book...
Honda / Acura Engine Performance, by Mike Kojima. PenguinPutnam, 2002.
ISBN: 1-5578-8384-X
Kojima is one of the best technical writers alive. His book covers every possible motor setup, including hybrids, NA & FI, Nitrous, literally everything. And the info is presented in a truly understandable format.
