Default LS Swap into auto 91 DX

My wife has a 91 Dx hatch with a tired motor and it's an auto. I thought maybe swapping an LS motor in would be pretty cheap, but she wants to keep it auto. Will an LS motor mate up to the auto that's in it? Or would you recommend the auto tranny from an LS motor?

B motor needs B tranny. so you would have to use an LS or other B tranny.

Found my B17 in a local junkyard. Paid $1200.00 shipped.
There have got to be literally thousands of B18A1 or B18B1 LS engines in junkyards coast to coast. The Integra was so popular those dead
cars got to go somewhere.

yeah, def try to find a tranny local first in junkyards and such ... you may even be able to pick up an entire integra cheap that is wrecked from a personal seller. then sell what you donl't need. last step should be to contact company that sells them ... usually tranny's won't be cheap if you aren't buying as "combo" with motor.
