I have a very basic question about this project that will reveal my inexperience but that would be helpful with my own longterm mod planning. How do you learn which engines and transmissions will mount easily in the engine bay? Do you judge from factory service manuals or do you have to get your hands on the engines first to compare? Is it just gradual accretion of knowledge through experience? How would I learn how adaptable a given engine is with a transmission? A given engine/trans combo in an engine bay? I do not want to distract the thread. I'm just really impressed with your fluency with these swap possibilities. THANKS!!

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.
