I wonder if the transmissions are swappable mechanically without a plate and, if they are, whether the electronics would be so complex as to make the swap almost impossible?

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.
