DOHC swap for EX's???

Is it possible to swap the DOHC from an SI for the SOHC on the EX?

I understand a new CPU or something will probably have to go with it, I also understand that they are different motors.

I searched and didnt find anything, and I havent seen anyone post this before. So flame away if you must, I can handle it.

Thanks

it'd take a whole lot of work, considering our engines are based on the D block, not the B. just go with the k20! it would definitely end up to be much cheaper and better.

You cannot swap different engine heads. ie a K block head on a D block.

Dosnt work.

There is one D block head that is a DOHC. I believe it was used on the late 80s/early 90s integras.
