Exclamation Si engine in a 2001 DX

Anybody know if it is possible to put an Si engine into a 2001 Civic DX?
If so, what model years will work?
What things should I look into before embarking on the mission?
Anyone know a place in the Indy area that I can get one?

Thanks all....

Wow, dude... You've just hit on one of the only options to get power out of these cars. Run a search. There is an ungodly amoutn of information on this topic. What you're refering to is a K-swap, since the engine you're refering to is a K20.

Thanks Jester. Slap my **** and call me ignant, but is the K20 what I have or what I need. Been googling for an hour now and can't seem to get that answer.....

Some goonies on another site say there is a lot of wiring mess with the kswap? Fact or fiction on a 2001 DX coupe?

WTF? Still no clue.
