I hear with Hasport mounts I can swap a K20 into my civic, but I am wondering if the K24 would fit as well?

It just seems like a really good setup.

I dont see the point of putting in a K20A3 over a K24 (accord 160hp).
Theres way more torque to be had, and the price of K24's are lower.

If anyone needs help on this topic. Theres this website called "k20a.org" that has quite a large sum of useful information.

K20As are just better made cuz they are meant to rev so high. K24s are not.

To understand why, you need to understand rod length. Here is something that can help:
