Default F20c

I am looking at putting an F20B into my 90 accord 2dr. So I was just thinking that the F20C is really just the same engine. Does anyone think that the S2000 F20C will fit/ or even bolt to a trans for the F20B?
Any ideas and or info will be of great help. Also I have been getting conflicting info on the F20B things like a red line of 7200 rpm and one that tells me 8000rpm can anyone help me figure this out?

A lot of money and time will make anything work. I think I have seen a f20c mated with a K series transmission but for, but its still far more work than its worth.

Theoretically possible, logically retarded.

F20B and F20C share naming similarities, but are completely different engines.

F20C (like the new K20 and K24 motors) spins the opposite way of the F20B, thus why it can be mated to a K-series tranny.

F20B SOHC VTEC & non-VTEC redlineis probably 7200 or lower. F20B DOHC VTEC & non-VTEC can probably rev higher, but the latter is the rarer of the two.

The F20/22C engine goes in the same category as the C30 .... totally unique and totally unlike every other engine in the series. An F20c is what happens when H & K have a baby.

Base model RSX has a K20z3 RSX-S has a K20a2 and no it wont even come close to fitting.
