Default LS swap into 97 dx auto....

As written in my sig, my accord is gone. Now, my dad picked up this 97 civic dx with 97xxx miles and the thing is really clean. Once again, its got the auto in it (but im not gonna complain cuz i got car quickly and it still clean as hell). Anywayz, im leaning towards doing an LS swap, but is it a direct drop-in or would i need a mount kit and a different mount for the LS tranny?? someone clue me in on this one.....

also, would i need a obdII-obdI conversion harness to run the LS ecu, or just use a entirely different harness?? someone let me kno......

are you planning on swapping an auto ls tranny? or a manual ls tranny?
also, you just need a obd2a ls ecu (can be found pretty cheap)
and for the mounts you need these mounts...
Rear Tranny mount from the 99-00 Si: 50827-S04-N10 $29.94

Driver side mount bracket from the 99-00 Si: 11910-P30-000 $41.03

96 del Sol AC bracket: 38930-P54-000 $95.40 ( only if you want to keep your ac)
good luck
