you have to use a k20 tranny. hasport makes a special mount for the k24. and with the k24a4, you will have valve clearance issues. you should have gotten a k24a1

you can run any k20 tranny. 6 or 5 speed. the problem with the k24 tranny's are that the case is too big

It fits, you just need to have aftermarket or TSX, or CRV pistons. The accord pistons will hit the valves of the k20 head.

Yeah, you'll have to do away with the oil cooler passage in the block unless you have a machine shop do it for you.

Good job on all that research man! the only way i learned was lots of readings and thread searching. and alot of trial and error. usually the only reason i will help people now is if they can prove that they atleast tried to search for their answer and got nothing. hit me up if you need any help.

the ep3 axles willl work perfectly. are you going to run this on pump gas? or is this a track car?
