Because less people have a use for a F20C motor.
If someone came out with a kit to allow you to bolt F20Cs into EGs/DCs/EKs, you can bet the price of F20C's would skyrocket.

i wonder if F20C motor would fit in newer civic/integra's or maybe any of accord models, they did swap F20C in 70's toyota, it was in some magazine.

Re: F20c vs. B18c and c 5
There is a company that has designed new bell housings that allow an F20C to bolt up to a K20A transmission. It is intended for use in the Lotus Elise/Exige, but it might just allow for a DC5/EP3 F20C swap.

We've recently purchased this 3000 mile old Honda F20C engine (S-2000) that will be coupled to the 6 speed limited slip trans from the new K20A. This is Honda's top line performance engine, producing 240HP,and redlined at 9000 RPM is the highest revving production engine ever built. After finishing the new Lotus Elise - Honda K20A conversion kit, the engineering will commence on the F20C conversion. This will be a more substantial project, as it will require a completely new casting for the bell-housing end of the trans. Prototype Racing will produce this casting, fully machined, for anyone desiring to mate the F20C engine to the K20A trans.
