I know this isn't a civic forum but this is where my home is (I still miss my '06 Type-S to death) so this is where I decided to post the question. Long story short the current K20Z3 is hydrolocked with bent rods and need to do a swap. Is the K20A a direct swap or do I need other parts to make...

Okay, so I currently have a 2002 Acura RSX Type-S. My engine blew and I don't have the money to find another k20a2 + labor to get it installed. My option right now that I am going for is to swap in a k20a3 into my car just to get it back on the road. From what I've read, it works, I just will...
