I heard the K20 swap costs in excess of $10,000, for engine, tranny, subcarraige, axles, suspension components, ECU... Basically whole front clip... But if you got the money.... I'd say go for the K!!!

hehe umm .. i know this might sound stupid but im not from the us.. laber here is cheap as hell.. for example... making an engine hold mo CC's.. (not sure of the term in english) costs about 500.000... thats about 166$ more or less ... an engine swap doesnt cost almost nuthing.. only thing expensive here are the parts.. since there mostly from the us... :S

Wow, what country are you from? I wanna move there too! Oh, and a B18C5 won't fit in any 2001+ Civic. Why not get a K20A (Integra R, 02+)?
