Default help with an engine swap

I was contemplating an engine swap for my 93' teggy. I wanted to put in a HONDA K20A R (RSX Type R.) Would it fit in the bay ? and would the mods i have fit on that enigne ?

i dont know if anyone makes a mount set for that kind of conversion. but if there was, expect a full swap to run you $7-$10k+. you can get a really nice built b series with that.

and no, b series parts will not fit a k20.

what would be swap that would be ideal for me to give me more horsepower and torque at stock, so i can put some mods on it to boost that up and have a quciker car than if i were to just stick with my b16 ?

Just boost a b18a/b or boost a b16a. Nice bang for the buck.

I was told that the k20 is actually smaller than the b18, and there is a crx with a jackson supercharged k20 in it (I think its by hasport), so it should fit the 2nd gen teg with no problem.
