Default Out of curiosity

I was thinking and this came to mind:

Is it possible to drop in a B-series motor into a '01 or '02 Civic coupe? Bear in mind custom motor mounts (if any), any special wiring, and including the ECU swap.

Also, does anyone know if the engine bay layout (motor mount placement) change going from the '00 model to the '01 model.

If this has been cover, could someone kindly point me in the right direction.

I may to this swap sometime down the road. Where I live, we don't check for smog so I would be free and clear on that. Thanks for the info.

Yup. Drop in.

They are D-series, so it'd be cake.
