1980 Accord/Prelude tranny

[1981.EK1]

Sold my 81 accord with a bad tranny to a buddy. now he is looking to buy a replacement trans. The 5 speed from a 1980 prelude would be an identical fit, right?

[79cord]

Yep, 79-81 Accord & Preludes share the same transmission, different shift linkages for '81 models but will bolt straight on. Late in 1980 flywheel bolts into crankshaft also enlarged so flywheels not so interchangeable.
