bro i think the flywheel is bolted on the side of the block and not on the tranny.A 17mm 1/2inch drive deep socket and a breaker bar 1/2inch drive will work,but be careful not to round off the bolt head.i was going to suggest a impact drill but its just too risky.oh check out the swap section about auto to manual swap,it have everything from lining it up and some wirings. i completed my first tranny swap with those info in the swap section.

i sold the Civic that had the automatic and bought one that came factory with a 5 speed

done and didn't get greasy

use a 12 point socket to get the fly wheel bolts out that way you wont strip them out. also when reinstalling them use some lock tight on them, you don't want those things coming loos on you.

totally agree with this statement about using the 12 point sockets. If you don't have any but you live near a Harbor Freight, theirs works well and won't make you go over your budget.

The auto transmission flywheel is referred to as a flexplate, you need a impact and a 12 pt socket to remove the bolts, to bolt the manual flywheel on the engine you may need a set of manual flywheel bolts, the bolts might be different lengths between the manual and auto, at least they are with a b/d series engine. Not sure if axles are different, you may need a manual interemidiate shaft, not sure, i know a b series manual intermidiate shaft is different than a auto due to the autos differential sitting futher back off the block. Should look at majestic hondas website and compare the two shafts part numbers to see if they are listed as different parts. this can be done with axles and other parts as well. I myself have never done this conversion on this model so can help you more than this, sorry.
