I don't think you can have a lower COG with engines other than a boxer. It not only about how much low or high the engine sits in the bay. It is about the overall height of the engine and of not being top heavy. The main advantage of a K24 swap would be its higher power output and lower weight, so you would have also a bit better front to rear weight distribution with the expense of a bit worse COG. I believe K24 weights around 413 lbs. (including transmission), while FA20 is in the range of 480 lbs.
