1.) It is more difficult it requires more fabrication or parts that need to be custom made
2.) **** yeah its recommended!! Its pimpasticular!
3.) I bet you could find a shop that could do it for you or even a local h-t member might do it for beer and pizza and a few bux
4.) It is hella expensive to do a k20 swap if you do the k20a (JDM type R) your lookin at 8k and higher...
As of now.. I would say it isn't the way to go only because they cost so damn much... But when cars with k20s start getting totaled more the price will come down and they won't cost so much and they'll be the bestest thing honda has!

I recommend HASPORT mounts if you're gonna go with the K20. Several companies also sell plug-n-play wiring harness to make the swap easier. It is harder than a Bseries but if you can do a Bseries swap you should be able to do the K swap. Check out http://www.k20a.org there's way more info over there you should become a member if you are interested in a K swap.

PM me if you have any other questions...
