stay with the b-series, the k isn't really that easy. not to mention all the crap you have to buy just to get the motor to run, and also have you seen how much those motors are.

if you have the time, money, patience and know how around your motor then i don't see why it would be a harder swap aside from the tranny mount bracket removal. with parts available nowadays the swap should be straight forward.

K20A.org has vast information you would need before attempting it. i would seriously do some research on what is really needed and what is bling and not needed.

Depends what K20 swap you want to do. If you want to do the DC5R swap, budget $10,000 MINIMUM. There are a lot of things that are going to add up real quick. We are in the process of doing a DC5R swap into an EK hatch and trust me. The bills add up fast.

The best thing to do is to try and source a K20/24 from a local yard, try and find a used tranny and then just start collecting the pieces. If you want something right now, you can do a B-Series or even H-Series swap for almost half the cost because most stuff is reusable and a bolt-in affair.
