OK so since a B- series engine wont fit because of the mounting problem what about the H22A and if not how much work is there involved in swaping out the d17a1 for a k20. I'd also like to know if you could get just as much HP out of the a2 version of the d17 motor as if i were to put in a k20 or at least close to it?

K20a2 swap would be easy... hp wise the K20 will already be over 2x the power of your d17... it would take ALOT to get the d to be near a k... I just watched PINKS! on speed channel and they had a k20 in a civic that claimed to be pushing over 400hp without spray!
