Default 02-05 civic si swap

Alright my original plan was to get a GSR swap into my 91 civic hatchback, but someone told me I can get the K series from the SI for the same price. I'm not asking which is better, but would my car be able to still have AC with the SI engine in it? Would I need some custom AC mount thing, and do i need to do any crazy work to get the engine in the car(like the H22 needs)?

LMAO I see....now that I think of it, when I test drove the Si it really did dissapoint me. So even with the i-VTEC, a GSR would take it out? What about after a few simple mods(intake, exhaust, headers). Cause I heard the RSX-S really picks up after that stuff is done....but then again you said not all Ks are equal i guess.
