Don't cut yourself short. There are many Honda guys here who could guide you through the process.
Or you can look for a tranny with different gearing and just swap the entire thing in a day or less.

This is the route I took. I still haven't filled my tank yet, but if gage accuracy is to be believed I may get 60+ mpg this tank.
Last tank was ~ 50 mpg.

Look around and see what others have done.
Try it for yourself.
