Default Anyone do the new "K" Engine swap yet

Just wanted to know if anybody out there has tried to put a RSX Type S engine in there EK civics. I read some of the newest issue magazines out there and they are showing it being done. I saw Hasport is starting to carry some parts for this swap. Whats it like? Is it total worth all the time and money, oor should someone stick with the traditional swaps B series?

well k-series motor will soon be the new thing once it gets easier so you might as well get a head start because they are alot more potential then b-series, but then again b-series motors is also worth it too.

K is taking over, but B will always be popular with its much lower price.

Who cares if someone has done it before. If he wants a Kseries he can do a kseries. Some people dont care about "being the first" and "being the first" usually has lots of problems to work out, just like Bseries did way back in the early 90's when they started swapping them into civics.
