type r engine in old honda civic

i have not yet purchased my honda, but i have access to a honda civic type r 2.0 litre engine. i was wondering how easy it would be to put this in a an older civic before i buy one. i had a look at the faq at the top, but i don't know anything about engines...i mean i don't know which car has a b16 or a c20 engine and which is compatible with which. thanks.

If you do plan on purchasing a CTR motor it will be a 1.6l. What year is your older honda?
