Default newbie ATX to MTX conversion question

To all,

I have just purchased a 91 Accord wagon for $1,000 with the followig:

DC Header
AEM Cold air intake
Mild cam (not sure of stats though)
Front cross drilled discs
2 inch drop on 17" ASA 5 spoke rims wrapped in 215/40 BfGoodrich
AND!!!!! Auto tranny with about 1 year of life left on it...

I want to convert this car to MTX so I can enjoy driving this thing, but never done such a conversion. Can anyone tell me what is needed and share some info on this subject?

Thanks

Okay, scratch that, could not find this info using the search, but found another post with this info by browsing.

Although, does any one know if they sell a complete kit for this conversion?

Thanks

your best bet is to go to a junkyard, and try to find an f series manual tranny in good shape, and do the conversion from a junker car

F series refers to the engine type.

1990 Accord DX/LX: 2.2L(2156cc), F22A1, MPFI, SOHC 16-valve (single exhaust manifold)
1990 Accord EX: 2.2L(2156cc), F22A4, MPFI, SOHC 16-valve (dual exhaust manifold)

Gotcha. Mine is a 91 LX Wagon, not sure which of the 2 I got, will have to look. Will the manual tranny fit from either engine type though?
