That happens. Should work if you put it back together with a new gasket. It's very important to carefully clean the head and block down to bare metal, remove all traces of the old gasket. D-series head bolts might be reused but I would go with what the swap experienced people here are saying and buy new bolts for a B-series.

Not needed really, but you could do it if you wanted. I have H22 being cooled by a pusher fan in the front on a 2 row 1.6L Civic half rad.

What I would do is go to autozone and look up the 2.0 vehcile and see what the replacement part number is for that radiator and then look up your original vehicle and see if the radiator is the same. you might get luck, if your driving alot of stop and go in town then you may need a larger radiator to help keep the 2.0 cooler, if your driving alot of highway then you could get away with a smaller radiator.
