Default Auto -> Manual Conversion

I have a 5th Gen Accord, 1996 model, F22B1 engine

It's a VTi, it's automatic, and it has Cruise Control.

I need to know exactly what parts I would need for a conversion. All of them. undoubtedly I need to source a gearbox but I also need to source a lot of small parts I can imagine and I have no idea what I'll need.

Has anyone on this board performed this transformation on this engine? How did it go? and were there any HP gains?

Learn to use the search engine... (as many will tell you this, since this is asked quite often.)

Scroll down through the Guide to Basic Accords. It's in there.

i just finished doing the conversion, took about 3 weekends, i pulled the motor and did a timing belt change at the same time... use the parts list in the basic guide, there are some good write ups on accordinglydone.com also, i will post a write up if i ever get some free time. it is also helpful if you can find a totaled accord, thats how i got all of my parts. look around, and be sure to have some extra money because it always costs more than you think

on the 96, you need the manual ecu, since there is not tcu, the code is something like xxxxxx POH L01, i think, make sure u get the POH because u have vtec.

Yeah, sorry I didn't realise this board has a search feature! I'm new, as my avatar states.

Thanks phat4dr, I'll keep that in mind
