the D17 motor featured in your car is basically the same as the D series motors in previous civics. they also rotate the same direction as hondas of yore.
K series motors rotate clockwise, therefore it's mounted under the hood 180 degrees from the old layout.
this being said, you can stick just about any B series motor in there considering you have the proper motor mounts. you can get the B series mounts from HASport or Place Racing.
