Will the Swiftech MCW20-P northbridge block fit on Abit Ic7?

The answer would be yes to both of your questions. The MCW20's retention mechinism only uses two of the 4 hooks on the mobo though and from what I hear the IC7 NB hooks are notorious for falling off the board. If you get the NB block Id probably look into making some kind of custom retention system that uses all 4 hooks instead of just 2 but maybe thats just my paranoid thinking of if it can go wrong it probably will.
 
and yes, I've had two hooks pop out on me, I just epoxied both back on, kind of a PITA but it works.
