Default s2000 engine swap

would swapping an s2000 engine into a 99/00 civic si be any good? does it have vtec? what would have to be done for that to work the right way, if the swap is worth it?

its been done, but not without lots of welding and customization. You're going from FWD to RWD, so its not easy. S2000's have F series, and i believe they are VTEC

Drop the idea and go onto something else, honestly with the time, money, and effort that it requires it isn't worth it.
