Transmission swap question

[mcl311]

I have a spare transmission from an 88 accord lx 5 speed. i was wondering if anyone knows if this transmission will fit on an 86 prelude 2.0si. i still have the extra transmission from my parts car after doing a carb to efi swap, and theres a prelude si down the street for sale for $300 that needs a tranny. if anyone can help me out ide really appreciate it. thanks

86 prelude? b20a? you should buy it :)

yeah i did some more research last night and realized it wont work. but hell, $300 bucks might just be worth the engine. I jumped it the other day and it sounds good. Maybe I'll do a swap

as a matter of fact i would swap out the b20 and put lie a h in there lol

it depends on the body of the car...if you think you can fix it and then turn around and sell it for more money
