Thumbs up a few ??'s on engine swapping

i finally commited the next 3 years of my life to working to earn enuf money to swap my engine... i wanna swap it with an rsx-s engine, but would it work with a b16a or a b18c?
http://service.hybridgarage.com/swaps.html here it says that theywould work on the coupes and sedans only. i have a 2001 coupe,
if i could swap in a b16 or b18, this would be better because ther is soo many parts out for it already? and to thepeople that have already swaped their engine in their 7th gen, how much did it end up costing you, and do you think it was worth it? i really want a k20a2 6 speed coupe!! that would just be !!thanks for any feedback

First of all... Search.. There's hundreds of swap threads.
You can swap a B-series if you buy one from a 2001 model year car ONLY. To legally do it, the engine can't be older than the car. So in US engines, that leaves you with B18s. No one has yet to swap a B-series in, the layout is a bit different because of the new suspension design. A few K20 swaps have been done, those have been covered.. so search those.
