If someone knows of a thread or good write-up on how to do the swap that would awesome to have. What would be the best direction/mods to do to get the most efficiency with this car? Any suggestions would be great.
Study MetroMPG's posts on this forum and on his own web domain. It does not get better with a Metro.

I will rebuild Black and Green over decades as parts die, until it becomes a different car of roughly the same shape and color. My minimum fuel economy goal is 55 mpg while averaging posted speed limits. I generally top 60 mpg. See also my Honda manual transmission specs thread.
