    K20A Series: Swappable?

    I know this is a longshot, but would there be anyway to make this engine work in any honda? I know that the engine spins the 'correct' way now (unlike all of the older hondas where the intake/throttle body is towards the back of the engine, and the exhaust headers are in the front) so just that alone poses a huge problem

    why would it be illegal?

    It's the same thing as an H22A swap.
    Mounts Axles and Wiring.... nothing new there.

    The new Civic Si comes with a K series motor, so that swap must have been pretty simple.
