Arrow 3.2 to civic

i just recently bought a 94 civic and am in the position to purchace a 3.2 acura V6 engine. I just want to know what is needed to make the swap work or where i could find some info on the subject. I would like to keep the tranny manual, but dont know which tranny to use. I want to learn more before I buy this motor.

Because the motor is too damn big, too much work to even try and swap it in, and you can make plenty of power with an easy to swap 4-banger.

i agree wit boosted. the only swap you can do with the j32a2 is swap it into a v6 accord.
