Default Looking to swap a B16A2 into an AT 97 HB

I hate it being auto, but within the next 2 or 3 months i plan on dropping in a B16 and converting it to manual. is it a bad idea to convert and swap at the same time or should i just go for the whole thing at once?

makes sense to just do the swap and manual conversion at the same time since the b16 will be manual right?

Second that...it's like having a muffler welded on to stock piping when 6 months down the road you're going to 3inch to match the turbo kit you have. It's just a waste to do seperately
