Default Is it possible to swap a b18a into a CR-V?

i know that people have been dropping b20s into cars for a while

i'm just wondering if anyone knows if it's possible to drop a b18 into a CR-V without needing 10k worth of fab work

wrong, i don't even have a CR-V yet, just a dream

i've got a built (dori240's 91 teg motor) LS/VTEC, and i'm toying with the idea of 450hp in a Honda SUV for something new.


does anyone know anything about the trannies in the CRV? i assumed the FWD would work without much issue, but i would really dig AWD

the whole year thing i still have to figure out...

i've seen a different few types of CRVs, but i'm not really sure on which generation is which

so research i'll have to do.

and besides, is it still possible to swap a LS in it if it uses a K series motor?
i'm new to hondas and FWD, but i'm working on it.

there are 3 generations of CRV so far...
second and third generation CRV shares the same engine...
first generation CRV has 2000cc displacement, HP from 130 to 146

i think k24a has more power and torque than LS engine....
and k24a is dohc vtec ...i think LS is just dohc engine..non vtec..
besides k24a has 2400 cc displacement and LS has 1800 cc displacement
and crv has 4wd and fwd versions...
here is a pic to my element's engine
