go-kart

I have a b18a thats going into my CRX. It came from an automatic integra. A friend told me automatics have different input shaft hole diameters on the automatic crankshafts than a 5 speed. I told him he is full of ----. People convert automatic to manual all the time and I never heard of such a thing. I imagine there may be some cases where this is true in some cars, but I highly doubt it for Honda/Acuras. Have I been wrong all this time or is my friend talking out his ***?

most cars you just have to put the piolet bearing in, I dont know of a single car you need to change the crank on

Dr.Boost

lol, I think you read that wrong and he worded it wrong. :P

Crankshaft has nothing to do with the axles. :P

Where did you get axles from he said input shaft not output shaft. He is talking about were the transmission input shaft mates with the crankshaft(through the clutch). :P On the auto you dont even have a input shaft per say because it has a torque converter and flexplate.

lonny

full- o-----. automatic engines rock! all of the auto engines i've taken apart they have much reduced wear. and just remember to change the flywheel bolts, i mean dont use the flex plate bolts on the flywheel. im drunk sorry

Auto's have shorter shafts, they end inside the torque convertor.

Slap on a B series flywheel with a new pilot bearing, use 6 flywheel (not flexplate) bolts, install the clutch assembly, slap on the tranny.

I dunno? Wow, I must have been drunk.
