So. Here is my question. Working on my Automotive Technologies degree. Next semester(fall) will be the auto/manual transmission class. I had hopes of when the engine class rolls around dropping a b20a into one of my accords. My question is, since I'm not entirely shure from looking around, is what to do about the transmission. From what people were saying about just using the a20a transmission with the b20a bell housing, will that work for my automatic transmission? or is it just the manual trannys that you can do it with?

And then with a transmission, cost wise, and I guess experience wise, would it be better to buy an all ready to go transmission for 600-800 and just install it, pull the transmission from one of my cars and rebuild it, or buy one from a junk yard and rebuild it. I was told that rebuilding these old automatics require many more parts and tend to cost more to rebuild.

Sry this was long and rambling. Any and all thoughts appreciated, Thanks guys
