MurkyRivers do you have a full parts list of what you have.
I'm following Kris' thread, but I don't know what I exactly need and don't need If I'm getting the full motor and tranny swap over.

All I have to say is good luck because you got a lot of work to do, but with all of the people here that want to help you are sure to get this done soon.

^ that sucks. Thats why you have to buy them before you say your doing it. I was very quiet about it until I got everything that is in small supply. Which ones were you looking at.

Looks like I'm gonna try the 6-speed from the 7th gen accord.

7th gen accord MT will fit but is without LSD. LSD from Acura will bolt right up.

The guy at LKQ said they have one for $1200, but since I need it shipped down here, I would have to get a hold of an LKQ store in FL where they would get it shipped from the location in Alabama and then would ship it to me from the Florida store. I have no idea why, the Alabama store is just as close as all the Florida stores are.
I called my local dealership just for shits and giggles to see what they said and he said a rebuilt one for $1800 .
This is the last part I am looking for, so everyone keep an eye out for one for me and let me know if you see one .

Read post 102 I ordered one already. Getting dropped off at my work (where I will be) during the day Friday.
I was also gonna say I was with a buddy after work and he was saying a buddy of ours has a shop; big ass garage, engine hoist, and pretty much every tool you would ever need. They build race cars and big ass trucks so I think they should be able to help me out pretty good with the mechanical stuff. I'm going to be talking to them in the next few days to see if I can take my car out there and they can help me with the swap.

Im glad you got the tranny, its not even that big, and you can definitely lift it with one hand. I replaced the throw out bearing and release fork just for good measure.

When replacing the clutch you should always replace the clutch release bearing and get Hondas high temp grease for packing the bearing and the fork.
