IVE DONE MANUAL SWAPS many times i just want to keep this coupe auto but want more power and i found an h22 swap cheap the only thing i want to know is there a big difference in the autos do the same cables fit all auto trannys?

What's your fabrication background like? Have you ever shoehorned subframe rails?

Have you ever compared the size of a manual transmission to an automatic? Or compared the mounts?

space is your enemy in this one. you wont have enough space to squeeze that bad boy in. only way to make it happen is to cut and weld. Here's an idea. here's an idea, try the h2b setup with an auto b-series tranny

Auto B-series are HUGE too. I've helped shoehorn a B20 with a B18B auto tranny into an EG sedan ... and there's like .... a sheet of paper's worth of space between the gear housing and the passenger subframe rail.

Not to mention the H2B kit spaces the transmission out.

Keeping AC and PS shouldn't be too hard, I have done H22 ek's w/ AC and PS before. The auto Trans will probably take some working with lol.
