The k24a1 would be BETTER for a swap because it will not have the valve to piston contact issues when used with a k20 head. This route makes it so that you aren't forced to swap pistons and rods to maintain a safe p2v clearance.

Wow for some reason I was thinking you were closer than that...golly you move faster than anyone on here and I still think Alex is beating u...
Teal valve cover and all!
Lol damn that's one hell of a parts list, but well worth the wait for the final product. This build is inspiring.
Alex = my arch nemesis
A lot of the things on the list are individually cheap, so I'll be able to grab several parts at a time. i'm sure it will still take a while before its all done but its not like I have some deadline to meet so i'm 
Yeah that's my way of thinking. From my old b16 swap I always wishing I had done this and that and a lot of things are easier to do with the engine out so in a way i'm being lazy too lol.
why not use CNS custom works again if I polish my intake manifold? They are local to me and cheaper
i see your 2 steps ahead of me
get an integra GSR rack, its easier to loop the lines and its got a quicker steering ratio than the non power ones.
lovin the valvecover! all you need is a polished intake mani to set it all off!

Holy parts list...
all of the eg/dc steering racks are quicker than the 6th gen civics so I don't think I'll g get too picky on which rack I'll get.
And i've been considering having the intake manifold polished....we'll see. If I knock out a couple more photoshoots I'll probably do it.
This is my simplicity build lol. Too nervous to try and build internals on my first k swap. That's why I went with a tsx motor (kinda like the b18c R of k motors).
