I just picked up a running 1996 Accord LX that was smashed in the rear half by a tree during a huge storm. I am going to pull the manual tranny and parts out for my 97 LX auto. I would appreciate comments or moral support for my sanity as this begins. Motor and trans are out of 96. Trans is out of 97. Now pulling pedals, cluster, console, etc. I suppose I'll keep the other motor for... maybe a turbo setup, or drop it in a golf cart.

 

I know there was a huge post on this swap somewhere on this site. I forgot to ask if anyone had the link...I have searched all over. It was the 4cyl auto to manual swap...the guy talked about the pedals being the hardest part. Thanks in advance.

 

Was this the thread you were talking about?
