B's in the 7th gen?

To someone with lots of experience...

Can you swap in a b series (B18b1)? I guess with enough money, you could do anything. I'm wondering about the possibilities, practicalities of such a project. Are there mounts? Does the tranny match up? Will it fit without too much cutting?

NOT worried about liabilities.

The reason I'm considering this is because it seems that this would be a pretty cost effective power upgrade compared with a K20 swap or turdbo.

it can be done, as long as you have a 2001 and nothign newer or esle it would be illegal. and the engine will be a tight fit. justy hope you know how to engineer some stuff like mounts and what not or else it could get costly.

K20 have greater power potential than a B18b...
Easier (so cheaper) to fit in a 2001+ civic.

All work is completely custom. To the guy who said you can do it for $120, good luck.

This has been covered a ton of times.
