I am new to the forum, so I want to say that I will appreciate any help I can get. I have a friend that wants me to perform a swap on his '97 civic, which currently has a stock drivetrain with an automatic trans, and he wants a H22a manual. I have been researching this for the past 4 days on the net, magazines, etc... I have been getting Mixed opinions on the procedure of the swap. Some say you can keep A/C & power steering, others say forget about it. Some say it is as simple as getting the right mounts and wiring harness, others say you need to cut out sections of the engine bay, and alot of different wiring procedures...SO I AM LOST. If anyone has any advice on this matter please help. Thanks
