Default Eclipse engine

I know that one can put an SR20DE in a Civic, but is it possible to put the Eclipse engine in the Accord? I know it sounds strange, but if it is possible, this means big power for less $.

Less money?
It'd cost a ton to get a 4G63 working in there.

It may not be too hard. If you think about it, they have similar bores, which means that the blocks will be close in size. I'm wondering if anyone has compared the two motors up close.

I am thinking physical fitment will be the easy part.
Getting everything else to work is probably gonna cost more than getting a boosted H22.

I probably will do the ghetto Mitsubishi manifold/turbo kit since I can do it somewhat custom and the most expensive part is able to be found at junkyards pretty cheap. Plus racers tend to ditch them anyways.

I think that if someone could hook one up to an F22B and run 10lbs of boost, then an F22B1 may be able to keep up. I thought they used a TD05H from the factory.
