i wanna drop a b series longblock into my 99 auto civic. i hear a range of conflicting information about this swap. some say that altogether its not worth it because itll cost too damn much for the labor of changing auto to manual transmission. others say that changing the trannie is no big deal. theres also the reliability factor? is a car that originally automatic going to break down on me in the near future just because i switched it to a manual trannie? or does it rely solely on the mechanic? ive only heard everyones speculations on the matter but im sure someone out there has done this and has some advice!! your help would be much appreciated!
