Will a D17A1 manual transmission bolt right up to a D17A2?

The tranny on myD17A2 **** the bed so i'm searching Craigslist locally for a new one and wondered if the D17A1 tranny would fit?

Thanks,

Dave

im pretty sure that it does since the d17a1 and a2 have the same block i believeits just the head that changes

It will bolt up no problem. I just did the same swap this afternoon. Make sure to remove the clutch slave cylinder so you don't have to bleed the clutch

The extra few Hp isn't worth the cost. You will need d17a2 ecu,wiring harness, headers, o2 senopsors, and a few other things...

Is the D17A2 VTEC or VTEC-E?

This still sounds like VTEC-E to me without some serious aftermarket cams. What power output gains are we looking at here?

I totally forgot that I pulled up one of these heads 2 weeks ago.

The D17A1=non VTEC
D17A2=VTEC-E (switching from 12 to 16 valve operation anywhere over 2,500 RPM) for fuel economy.
D17A(un-numbered)=VTEC with high performance cams in Pakistan models and some JDM/Asian units

Alright so anyone else have any info thats relevant to this or should i just try to find a d17a1 and keep as is --- also for some reason I read that a d15b was compatible with my d17a1 is this correct?? have a look here http://www.ebay.com/itm/JDM-Acura-1-...9065a5&vxp=mtr

The D15B head is compatible (as the heads are the same). Its the crank-shaft in the block that's different. A mini-me setup is going to be quite tricky.
I have the D15B block too, but I'm looking to increase displacement and raise the compression a bit. My D15B makes the same power as your D17A2, but obviously less torque due to the differences in crankshaft.

Yeah nah im looking to replace the hole engine and its a D17A1 not the D17A2 Im looking into replacing it either the D17A2 or the D15b but I dont want to be scambling for parts when the engine is out and im trying to get it running

Personally, I like the naturally quick response from my seventh gen D15B, but I like the torque of the D17A2? It would be great if Honda implemented the real VTEC in these units like the previous generations.
