Default Engine Swap question

Not that I have any intentions of doing this.. but would it be possible to put an engine from an S2k(f20c?) into a 5th gen?

Its possible, but it not worth the money to turn the prelude into a RWD car just for that swap

A rwd Prelude with the S2k motor would be sooo badass. But it would never be worth the $ to do it unless you have tons of cash and you wanna freak people out at driftshows lol. I wish the lude was RWD, I love the lude but thats my main complaint....next car of mine will be rwd....maybee the G35 coupe, just dreamin now

reverse the internal rotation. all you need are cams and to reprogram the ignition timing.
