91 CRX HX tranny + B16 engine = Doable or NOT

My nephew has a 91 CRX HX and has the chance to get a B16 cheep - he wants to know is the engine swap possible with his existing Tranny ???

D series transmissions don't bolt up to B series engines.

I thought you could use an adapter plate to bolt it up.

You CAN make it work with a adapter plate.

B2D - B series engine to D series tranny.

I have a video of someone doing it:

That vid is of a fellow member with a cable Si tranny (short gears). He's in 5th by the end of the 1/4.
