i have recently got an '87 prelude. it has a B20A5 2.0 16V DOHC PGM-FI engine and an auto tranny.
i have an '88 crx with no motor, and no tranny. will the prelude engine/tranny fit in the crx? i figure i would have to get new engine mounts, but im more concerned about the transmission.
any help would be greatly appreciated,
thanks in advance,

it is possible im sure but not worth the effort sell the prelude and buy a wrecked integra preferably obd0 so no wiring problems thats what im about to do

yeah its not worth it. Its not a true B series engine. Its like an H22. Its a B20 but its parts dont match up to any other B series engines. It leans back in the engine bay like the H series engines do and its not very powerful. Like rosshatch89 said buy a wrecked integra and swap in a B18a. Better motor with more oem and aftermarket parts availiable.
