Default Are JDM Civic Coilovers intended for B-Series weight distributions?

I am thinking about getting non-adjustable Mugen Lowdown coilovers for my '97 Civic Coupe, but my Civic has a D-Series engine in it. I would assume that the Mugens and all JDM coilovers are engineered with the B-Series engine in mind. Since the D-Series engine is lighter than the B-Series, I'm afraid that the front end would sit higher than the rear and if that's the end result, I would be quite pissed after spending $1000 on those coilovers. Anybody know if the front would sit higher than the rear with a D-Series or would it not matter? Anybody here w/ D-Series motors using JDM coilovers? Remember, these are non-adjustable coilovers that lower the car only 20mm. Thanks!

doesnt matter...not a crucial amount of weight difference...also i think most aftermarket springs/coils make the rear a tiny bit higher than the front so it would be fine...
