I just purchased a restored 1992 civic shell no motor. It was a manual but I bought a auto tranny and motor combo. What problems might I expext when installing the motor and tranny into the car? This is a daily driver not a performance or a show car this is why im trying to make the auto tranny work.What modifacation will i need to make. Please help!

 

Your jusr going to need to convert to auto, just get a auto shifter, linkage, ecu, not sure if mounts are the same or not and then u will have to get a automatic pedal assembly

 

I already have the auto trany with the ecu i bought a complete swap. I was told you have to replace the radiator and possibly the interior harness,also that you can use the manual pedals.

 

sell the auto tranny and get a manual... dont take a step backwards

You can use the manual pedals but it will look stupid if the car is auto. You will need the radiator because it is dual core, and i belive there is a tranny cooler in it as welll. Also the tranny mount for the auto. Not to sure on the harness inside, dnt see why.

 

I beleive the interior harness will need wires for the shifter indicator lights on guage cluster and shifter lock. Other than those two things I cant think of any other electrical that would be effected.

 

i could very well be wrong but i think that there all in there for the gauges, just arent hooked up when u have a manual. doesnt seem to make much sense, if theyr are two
