Default AWD B series CRX is it possible?

Hello i wanted others opinons on this matter. I am currently deployed when i return home i wanted to do a B-series Swap into my CRX but i desire to be different. So i would like to install either a B 16 or B 18 combined with a CR-V B 20 awd transmission to make a unique vehicle. If anyone else out there thinks it is possible then let me know i might buy the transmission and go ahead with the standard swap and try it out at a later date if no one else thinks it can happen.

First, I want to thank you for your service!!

Now, this could be done with a lot of money, and a lot of skill. It just doesnt seem practical to do. I understand wanting to be different, but this most likely would screw up a crx and take one more off the streets. The time and effort to do it right and rig everything up with soooo much custom work, waste of time and money IMHO. Now, if i had millions to play with, sure I would find somebody that could do it for me (I would ask Panducky Motorsports).
So I guess my rambling is just saying: If you are sure you will complete it, do a clean install and not get tired halfway and rush things to finish and half *** it, and dont mind a lot of down time and money, have at it.

Been done, not worth it.

Buy an STi or an Evo if you want AWD.

Anythings possible if you have the money... In the Hybrid or tech forums there are several AWD builds, and Mid engine RWD builds. Check them out.
