the b21 is one of the B series that doesn't share the normal block of all other B series, isn't it?
Anyway...even if it does, why would you want to do that?

not too hard, you gunna have to play "make the custom mounts" though...
if this puts you off, it may be pretty difficult...
teh engine is installed on a pretty weird angle in teh Prelude.
maybe take a look at a 88-91 Prelude engine bay and play "compare and contrast" with the current mounts in your CRX.
good luck!

Even if you did manage to get that in.....you will now have what, 140 hp? Those B series motors from Honda are the oddballs. I should know. I have the B20a5 in my Prelude. I dog of a motor and runs out of breath before 7,000 rpm.
I like the 3rd gen Prelude body though.

This is a weld-in swap. Forget using Hasport mounts. Given the fact that the B21 is really not that great, I would forget about doing this swap.
