Default 99 accord LX-v6 engine Drop!

so i just get out of my i4 manual accord and step into school. my friend had called me and told me that he had gotten into an accident in his v6 over the weekend but that he was ok. Long story short, he said there's a pretty good chance that he's just gonna buy a new car and asked me if I wanted anything from his stock-fully-loaded-6-banger.

i said "HELL YES! gimme the engine seats and rear disc brakes"...
So here's my predicament, what will be involved in dropping this much bigger and more powerful engine in... since it's an auto tranny and i want to keep my manual tranny, what will have to be done? Is this gonna cost me an inexorbant amount of money? I have all materials and pieces i need including cherry picker (pick that hoe up), jacks, and all the pieces from the wrecked car at my disposal, BUT i have no knowledge of what needs to be done... anyone wana estimate what i will need, prices, etc.?
