F20c swap?

ive been researching cool unheard of swaps like b18 in place of D17 which apparently is illegal. and i came across this while researching a video game lol. It was an F20c swap into a 2000 integra i looked it up cuz i hadnt heard of this particular engine code and was curious. Apparently its the 2.0 S2000 RWD motor and i saw that it had been swapped into a could of 5th gen civics which i so plan on getting one soon i love em. Anyhow would this be possible in the 7th gen or is there truley something that special bout the 95 hatchy. any howi think this would be a dope swap imean a RWD civic .....NICE




ok off topic how the hell do i add my sig to my posts i realize i did it wrong any help sorry ty

Re: F20c swap?

why would you swap in an engine internally almost identical to a k20a and pay somewhere between $15,000-20,000 to have it done?

Re: F20c swap?

Not sayin I would I love my d17 like I said I was just looking for outlandish swaps and came across that I alot of times come across great deals like a b18 in good cond. for 300$ I drove it and it was perfect just needed a fuel rail the gas in NH is still leaded so it tends to junk stuff up but I thought should I come across a deal id take it

Re: F20c swap?

Someone gave me a running b18. it's sitting in my closet.

The issue with swapping in anything except a k-series is that you need to make custom parts and not many of us, myself included, have the resources or skills to do that. If you swap in a b18 you'll need to custom make the exhaust, mounts, modify the intake, work out all the wiring yourself, figure out what subframe to run and possibly modify it.. i could go on. The reason kswaps are actually not that difficult is that those engines are stock in cars fundamentally similar to ours, besides, b-series are dated and you can buy cheap k engines for $500.

Re: F20c swap?

I agree it just interests me to see the ingenuity some ppl put into car enthusiasm. I whole heartedly believe in thinking outside the box

Re: F20c swap?

then you should check out this site, there's not much in terms of simple pictures to ogle but it is truly an amazing project. Carbon brakes, magnesium wheels, penske dampers...

Re: F20c swap?

Exotic swaps - they don't ask how to do, they simply go and do it. Fabricating and stuff included, so you are a step behind just for having asked
