swap from LX to EX
I got a great deal on a EX engine, so I desided that I was going to get it and swap it into my LX, am I going to need a new tranny, and where can I pick up a ex ecu?

EX engine can work on LX tranny. Just like me when I did a auto to manual swap. I have a EX tranny in my LX engine.

Id just swap the EX head, and use a vafc to get the vtec to engage. just what Id do, than sell the block to the ex.
