possible = yes
how much work = a lot
how much money = more than you have

Because it's relatively cheap and super easy. The K-swap is not.

Is it that much more than a full B series Type R Swap? What if you choose a Type S intead of a Type r wouldn't that be a little cheaper?

Well the motor itself is like $6-7k, then you got the long list of other replacement parts.
