You might want to try being a little more specific in exactly what motors/car your talking about. Also sentence structure makes reading much easier.
Oh, and the search button can be your friend.

The K20 out of the RSX Type S is probably a little better than the H22, but it really depends on what kind of car its going in, what type of budget you have, and what you plan to do to the engine.
Be more specific....it'll help you get the answers you're looking for.

If money isn't a problem you should put the KA20. The power guys are getting out of those with basic bolt-ons is awsome. It is also lighter than the H22. The swap is easy because there are kits to do it. I personally like the H22 better, and the b-series motors better than the H22, but I'm like one of those muscle heads that hasn't figured out that the new motors today get just as much power, are lighter, smaller, and get better gas mialage, except I'm an old Honda head. B-series from start to finish all the way. It also helps when you have four friends who all run low 12's with about 200whp NA in eg hatches. I will be mid to high 12's with my 4-door eg.

I dont know if the h22 is harder to put in, but I do know the k sure as hell wont be a breeze. Dont forget about axels, motor mounts, wiring harness, etc.
Personally I would go with the k but I am extremely biased. I am a k series engine whore.

They have some really high quality stuff.
Motor mounts $599
Wiring harness $350
Axels (400whp) $700
= $1649
The price of the engine will really depend on where you get it from. Some go for around $5000 for engine, tranny, ecu. Or a couple months ago i could have gotten you a k24a2 motor (no tranny) for $2000. It all depends on when and where you get it. If the motor doesnt come with an ecu expect to toss out about $1500 for a new hondata k-pro(you should get it anyway). You also have shift cables, fuel lines, header, custom exhaust piping....
Hell by the time your done you could have just bought a brand new civic hx.
Honestly though, I dont think you will want to drop a k in your car yourself. Not to be rude or anything but you dont sound like you are very knowledgable about swaps and this isnt a swap for a first timer. I am not trying to talk you out of it or anything, if you really want to do it and have the garage for it then go for it, but just consider the cost and intense labor involved with it first.

:iagree: Yeah it sounds like you are planning on doing this yourself. Just get an estimate from a reputable shop that you can get everything from. That makes it easy and they might cut you a deal since you would be getting everything from them. Or put the same money into a b-series motor and the 2 swaps you are talking about wouldn't be able to touch you. B-series swaps are very easy, and if you are in Southern California I can hook you up with a guy to build your motor for pretty cheap and you will run 12's, NA. NA all the way. If Honda motors were meant to be turboed then Honda would have done it.

H22 = Bitch to put in.
K20 = Bitch to put in.
You'll need mounts, axles...and the like, for both swaps.
Its really a matter of which one you can afford. They will perform very similarly (in drag, at least.)
If you can afford it, go for the K20. There are a lot of benefits to it (such as weight), as opposed to the H22. (And this is coming from an H22 owner.)
Into an EK Hatch, a B-Series would probably be the most cost effective out of all.
