Follow the dpfi-mpfi conversion.
P.S. get another tranny, for the cost of rebuilding your transmission I could get 2 better ones.

yes definitely buy a new tranny...it is not worth rebuilding...
u need to do a dpfi to mpfi conversion...there are tons of writeups all over the web and on HT...u also need to run the 4 wires for vtec...that can also be found on HT...i guess u can get a vtec controller and have it run off of a switch, but id get a vafc...it makes it a lot easier
