Here's my situation:

1 sportshift H22 engine
1 1999 automatic Civic EX
1 Wife who drives only automatic
1 Husband who wants to do the swap

I've done maybe fifty engine swaps (not for a few years, but you never really forget) but I've never gone this way. I've probably done 5 or 6 auto to manual conversions, but never tried to stay automatic.

Anybody know where I can get some info on this swap? (I searched, didn't really find anything exact)

 

i dont' think the H22 auto tranny fits in the civic engine bay.

 

Anything can fit, but nobody that know of makes a mount kit for these.

So you'd have to do your own fabricating.

are you sure? the prelude engine bay is bigger than a civic's, and the manual tranny h22 barely fits in the civic bay. The auto tranny is larger then the manual tranny is. I think you would have to do a lot more fabricating than just making a mount kit.

 

That's what I meant. Nobody makes mounts to just bolt it in.

You'll have to do fabrication(not even worth it, imo).
