You have a 3rd gen. I THINK b series engines fit in those, but am not completely sure. You probably won't find a lot of 3rd gen guys here, but http://www.3geez.com is a really good site for you.

Anything is possible. go down to your local tuner hang out shop and see if there is someone crazy enough to take on the task.. if there is he will say you should do an H22. ignore that. the H will be very expensive on such an extensive project.

Place racing sells mounts just for that purpose. 3geez.com has an awesome write up of FAQs for your car. I'd go over there and just start reading up.
