Deffinately go check it out mate!!!
lil info on engine number i dug out using google incase you didnt find anything-
Also drop a PM to one of the vendors such as TDI or unit 8 , cpl etc to ask them where to look.
Info i found-
There's a sticker I believe on the timing chain cover. On it, it should say something like:
2PRC-0A01E 267 1
K20A-3604483
OR
2PRB-AA000 270 1
K20A2-14022221
PRB = Type-S ECU
PRC= Type-R ECU
PNF = Base ECU
The VIN is located at the back of the engine, underneath the halfshaft. There should also be one on the transmission which should match if you bought a complete swap from the same car.
Is that like a number stamped on back of engine, on left, next to where the manifold should be bolted. Above blue bolt to the left.??
a2 cams are 3 lobe. you can also look at the sticker on the timing chain cover. but looking at the cams and block stamp are you're best bet. ecu, intake manifold, trans, etc can all be switched
They stamp the block by the starter under the intake manifold. The intake manifolds for the base are completely different than on the type-S
Above info was collected from k20.org, club rsx and honda tech. hope it helps.
