it is illegal because of the emission standards keep going up and you can only legally swap for the same or newer year engine.

hmmm if u want to put a b-series ina 02 civic, u should be slapped by the hand of God....
first off... k-series and b-series rotate a differnt direction...so your engine would have to be put in backwards
2nd it will cost you so much money it would be a joke if u did it...when u could of used that money to build ur k-series
3rd K-series will soon have more potential than a b-series..once people kno how to work k-series and become for familair with it than a b-series the k-series will soon become a better platform IMO
if u going to swap a motor in..consider the k20a2

simple question, whats the difference of swapping out a stock d17 from 02 ex civic and replacing it with a b-series motor, (myself knowing already k-series rotation direction from a b-series, but not looking for k-series, taking my previous b18c5 out of my crashed ek)?

Except the EX doesn't have a K series, it has D series.

lets just say you were smart, you would sell your type r motor and get a K SERIES MOTOR, like a type s out of an rsx or a newer type r motor.
you would be doing way too much shit to make it worth while but hey you wanna spend 8 grand to install a b series in a 02 civic go ahead

are you guys sure the b seires is easier? will it go it with stock axles/hubs/mounts? sure its still a d series but the tranny is on the other side of the car. also, it sounds like it would be a wiring nightmare.
