We do that all the time. We've done a couple of Accord H22A swaps, Integra and a bunch of civic swaps that way.....and....you don't have to take off the tranny like when we use to use a cherry picker. However, we take out the front cross member also. Its a lot easier than you think once you see it done and takes minutes. Just watch out because we have a lot of close calls on crushed knuckles.:thumbup:
