Default b20 in EK hatch

ok heres my question i have a automatic 98 civic dx hatch and im lookin to put a b20 with a ls automatic in it. ive called the local shop that does swaps and they said its very hard to do 2 custom mounts have to be made and the tcm wiring is a crazy nightmare. they didnt want to do the swap for me but if they did they said they would charge me $8000. oh ya btw i cant drive a manual im in a wheelchair so i cant convert to 5 speed. has anyone done this swap that can give me some help thanks

I believe a few have attempted. I don't know of anybody who's succeeded.

Did you try searching?

your best bet would be to get an automatic integra LS and you can make that faster and still be automatic
