Oh god, what will they think of next?
Itll be a frankenstien car thats forsure. But my understanding is that its the same as D and B series. That rumor that you could but a B16 on a D16 block, FALSE!

Slammed is right, the engines don't even rotate in the same directions. Honda B's and D's and a few Chevys have a rotating assembly that spins counter clock. Majority of engines spin clockwise including most of the K's. For him to do so would require him to flip the cam gear and distributor components in the head to the other direction. Not entirely impossible, but the only people that I know who've done that intense of machining were British Touring Cars with an almost unlimited funding.
Not to mention, B's are belt driven and K's are chain. Plus matine head problems

He'd have to put it on backwards, which would cost a rediculous amount of money for what little gains it would provide. The two engines spin in opposite directions, and while it may still be possible to achieve with enough money and work, it is nowhere near being practical or smart to do.
I have seen pictures of an H22A that had its head reversed and was made to spin clockwise, but I'm not sure if it ever ran because it was on an engine stand, not in a car.

Not possible.....
However, you might be able to make a b series head act like an I VTEC head.
