So big updates here since last time. Master is in, motor/transmission is in, engine harness all plugged in, ECU is in, J37 manifold with J35 top plate is on, J32 throttle body and adapter are on the manifold as well. Stud welded on the shifter adapter, so the gears are the right way, not backwards.
So the J37 Manifold consists of:
--J37 manifold body
--J35 top manifold plate
--P2R throttle body spacer
--J32a2 throttle body
Basically at this point, I need to figure out wiring, grab a few vaccum block-off ports, and vaccuum lines. Then its just putting everything back together.
Didn't get pictures of what I did today though.

This is a transmission soleniod, or where it used to go. I believe it locks out reverse when driving, but I don't know for sure. It's a normally 270-310 dollar part. I called Tim @OEMAcura and got it for less than that. If you all need anything, call this man. He knows everything.
Anyway, some stuff to help out on the J37 manifold.
1.) There is a port that points to the passenger side on this manifold, you can block this off.
2.) On the back, there are two heater hose ports, and the Accord only has one port. You'll need a Vacuum-T for this.
3.) When putting the J32 throttle body on, it will sit at a little bit more of an angle than it did on the J32a2 manifold.
I'll have to get some better pictures of the other stuff sometime here shortly, but its getting there.
