Default F20C in a 2009 Civic Si?

After searching both Honda-tech and the internet, I have been unable to find any information regarding this swap. Is it possible? I was thinking that the engine bay in the Civic Si may be too small to accomadate the F2K engine and transmission combination. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

No. Installing the F20C long block to the K20Z transmission via adapter kit. Front wheel drive.

WTF would you do that for, with the money you spend on the conversion kit you can have a nice all motor setup, or a turbo setup making easily 5's on pump gas and high 5's on e85. Don't bother.
