it's going to be a bish to attempt such a task alone unless you are fully sponsored by those shops you mentioned and they are going to spend lots of resources on your car.
i'm sure you already considered these factors, but just as a reminder let me list a few:
1.) motor mounts..not sure if HASports or anyone else has a complete drop in yet. :dunno:
2.) spacing. i know it's been done with the other K series before and it doesn't look that nice in there :ugh:
3.) wiring. expect to spend a good amout of time figuring out the wiring diagram and rewiring many of the plugs if not the entire harness. along with that, the countless hours of diagnostics if something isn't working right. :thinking:
4.) cost efficiency. not only is it going to cost alot of money, but all it takes is one little 5cm flange to impede your progress for about.
a month. :rant:
5.) with all that said and done, you'll get attraction and admiration from many out there including myself, but what are you going to do when another honda whoops you while spending farrrrrr less than you? you gonna say "well, at least you don't have a K series in there" and feel better about getting your ass kicked??
** i give you props for thinking on a more original level, but feasiblity and cost don't intersect reasonably on this one.. good luck :thumbup:
** call up HAP in Rancho Cordova.they might have some ideas for you and places to get your motor.
