yes, HASport has a mount kit that mounts the rsx-s motor into the 2002 si. checkout www.hasport.com
the two engines ARE identical as far as your concerned, yes the heads are different, but since the head only touches the block, it doesnt matter, trannies are the same too, but you will have to mod the shift linkage for the sixth gear, and you can use the 5 speed, but i doubt you want to
Its a celebration bitches!

all k series engines are interchangeable with the heads blocks and trannies.
you can have a si block with a rsx S head and a rsx R tranny
its all about the series
same thing with the b series engines... everything mixes

Sure can.
myeverlovinsir has swapped the Type-S head and ECU and made a complete walkthrough of it on EPhatch.com. He also made video of it, he first ran the head swap with a Hondata flashed Si ECU which allowed the car to run in Vtec from 2200rpm all the way to 7700rpm(sounded mean). He then changed ECU's to the proper K20A2 ECU and the car runs like a Type-S now.
Yay, i own civic si with half *** vtec.

Here is video
