2003 CR-V and 2003 RS-X interchangeable parts ??
Just curious, I noticed that both the CR-V engine and the RS-X engine look very similar. Is there any compatibility between them ?? For example, I'd like to get the red TypeR valve cover for the RS-X and use it on my CR-V ... am I on the right track ??

the valve cover should fit.
the head & block are interchangeable among virtually all k series motors. The differences are in the valvetrain, intake manifold, tranny, etc.
but they're about as modular as the b-series motor, so you'll see some real frankenstiens soon - like type-s heads on k24 blocks.

I might be wrong but i thought the CRV blocks and the RSX blocks have different heads. I thought the cast was different but i could be wrong.
But yea many 2.4 blocks will be out since now not only the CRV has them but the TSX and Accords

Will have a beer can posing as an Oil catch can. 
But i have already seen 4 wrecked accords with 2.4 blocks in them at work. So im sure that many will be getting them.

Re: 2003 CR-V and 2003 RS-X interchangeable parts ?? (GreenR)
How are they going to solve the problem of the long stroke the CR-V has with the high revving nature of the K20A/2 head? Wouldnt it be turning crazy RPM's? Could they produce the same horsepower as a Type-S maybe a little more, and alot more torque just at a lower rpm so as to not risk shooting a piston through the head?

you would have to change the pistons out ,and I would take the entire head apart and get it opened up so the head mates to the block and cc the combustion chambers .alot of time and money
