Default K20 Cams/Pistons/Crankshaft fit into a B16A?

Hi,
I have a 1994 VTi withthe B16A2. Ive heard that the Honda engines are cross compatable in many ways. Will the Camshaft, pistonsand crankshaft assembly from aType-R K20A fit into my B16A?

thanks

No, the k20 is a 2 liter and the b16 is a 1.6 liter nothing will fit there two cpmpletely different motors

the liters doesn't matter, the series matters. b series parts are interchangeable with other b series, same with d's and k's

depends which pistons and cams you go with... there are a lot of options.
