I went on passwordjdm to look for a hood for the k20...I called the company and asked them if they sell any hoods that would fit for the k20. They told me that there's no hood that would fit and that I would have to cut it.
does anyone no what other after market hoods would fit so I don't have to cut it.
I was told that if you buy the SiR hood it would fit but it turned out it doesn't.
what other options do I have?

cut the hood. i havent seen a hood yet that fits with a k20.

It SHOULD fit with the SIR hood. Sounds like your engines sitting a bit high...Fuck it, hoodless FTW!! lol, good luck

Maybe take it to a good body shop and get an esimate on having them fab you a hood from fiberglass.

other options are you can lift the hood at the hinges with washers and longer bolts. or cut the skeleton on the underside of the hood.

I think CRXBART on hondatech has a k20 in a CRX I cant remember what hood he is using but it fits under it. He did say there is no way you can run ITB with a hood though.

yea I found out about that.
I think what i'm going to do is buy a whole jdm front including hood, bumper, headlights, and corner lights for about $800.
I got my estimates the full swap its going to cost me about $9000 with labor. but it might be more.
This really sends me back so I'm going to have to wait three more months to get this done.
I heard that you also have to change the suspension because the motor is so heavy.
I'm really happy that I found a shop that can get this done.
