Not sure if they fit in the em2 though I know they fit in the EG/EJ, EK and some others. But am sure it will as long as you have money anything is possible.

look some honda tuning magazines...
most of the cases you will need to cut the hood for the engine to fit in...

Ya this is true. I am sure it will fit but you might have to do some modification of the bay. They make motor mounts for it. There are 2 sets of mounts for a j swap. The first set seats the motor to high that you have to cut the hood and the other seats the motor to low that the oil pan is very close to the ground. Me though I would be the mounts that put it up high.

yup, depending on the mounts. If you don't want to cut the hood, you will instead have very little clearance from engine to the ground. they will stick out one way or the other...

You could always make a cutout in the hood, and get a super cold air intake like this guy :

^ You could but that will not be a DD at all. Only for show and for drag racing.

Oh, I'm sure you can make it a DD
Just gotta custom fabricate a good hood scoop to cover it up

from all i know, putting a J-series considering the restraints of engine height and loosing ground clearance or cutting the hood/putting a scoop will in the end never be a real sleeper! . Sorry, buddy, but this thread is getting too funny! )

Now with new edition in, it is in their we site. note the engine in the bottom side and clearance to the ground.
