Default B18c Axle (Driveshaft) Help!

I need to know wheter I could use m/t axles on a a/t B18c swap? I cant find any 400hp cv axles for a/t (not even 200hp axles for a/t). Its gonna be going into my 96 civic ex and im getting the engine soon and need a straight answer. Thanks to all that can help.

with an a/t i get perfect shifts all the time and even though m/t is faster id rather get that perfect shift then mess up my clutch.

I need a B18c a/t axle but i cant find one.....any suggestions?

Wow, Honda automatics do anything but shift perfectly. And clutches if you don't seriously abuse them last a long time, just buy a clutch for your particular application, obviously at 400hp a stock clutch isn't going to cut it. Honda automatics on the other hand, they don't stand up so well to 400hp, and theres not much you can do about it unless you want to spend some serious cash on it.

+1 honda automatics suck. Its not like its a DSG twin clutch, or the new EVO SST twin clutch.

Do a 5 speed swap, you're not going to blow through clutches every 3000 miles unless youre an idiot.
