C32B Swap?

Say you have a alot of money to throw around.
What are the chances of getting a C32B in a 96 EJ?
Given the reputation of the C32B motor, fitting it in a EJ will make a mean track car, not to mention a crazy one-off civic.
I know it's a bit far-fetched, but hey, isnt it always?
Oh and for the people who look at this and thinking about talkin smart *** ****, please dont, its just a question, dont get your panties in a twist.

This is like the twin turbo thread. I've seen a V6 shoehorned into the engine bay of a civic. It has been done, check honda-tech for the thread.

there is a Civic hatch (96-98) with a Corvette V8 in it. of course the rest of the running gear is also all Corvette, it's just the outside sheetmetal that's Civic. so yeah, it's doable. just real dumb, that's all

tag racecraft also has a turbo s2000 engine and drivetrain in RWD civic and is currently building a RWD s2000 powered accord.

My buddy is working on putting a acura V6 in the back of his del sol and making it RWD.
