What are you planning on doing with it? A K24A1 head swap would be a good upgrade.

This engine will not go back into the car (well it's not planned to). I plan to use it as my test dummy. This is my first engine rebuilt and I think this is the perfect engine to learn how to do it. If it is successful, well I probably can sell it as a k24a4 replacement engine and maybe I can do a bit of money on it. On the other hand, if something goes wrong, the engine in pieces is worth more (the base is often used for k24/k20 Frank) than as a complete one, so its not a big deal if I mess something up.
I want to do a stock rebuild for now, if during dismantle I see a major part that need replacement I might consider other options.
I'm still not sure whether use oem parts for gasket and stuff or go cheaper with other brands (open to suggestions on cheap but still good quality parts). I don't really want to put 1000$ on new honda parts to sell the engine 800$

Ehh. If you're rebuilding it just to sell it, you probably won't make much from it or even get your money out of it.

Still planning on doing the MT swap in the future?

Yup! Don't know when, but when the time will be right, I'll be ready.
Only need clutch master, pedals, and shifter box (this one is broken on one of the bolt holes)
there might be other stuff I forgot I would need but I think this is it

Where's your list, do you have manual gauge cluster, clutch fluid reservoir, IM if different? Just a thought.

If you need a shift box, I still have a few lying around. I would recommend picking up an EM1 clutch master cylinder. It isn't plagued with the problems that the newer ones have.

Haven't done a list yet, I'll probably keep my auto cluster ( still works, there will be non-working PRND lights but who cares), The reservoir was included in my mind when I said clutch master. I have a TSX IM from a MT donor and it works so I guess that's no problem there.

I'll let you know for the shifter box when I'll be closer of doing the conversion if I still need one. Thanks for the tip about the master cylinder. Is it a direct fit ? bolt pattern, connection to the pedal and stuff ?

Yes. The clutch master cylinder is a direct fit. It's what I use on my car. In the past, I have destroyed clutch master cylinders. I haven't had any issues with this one. I put 6000 miles on it with a Competition Stage 4 and now use it with my Competition Twin Disc.
