You should search out Cablemirc's posts on this subject. He did the swap earlier this year on his DX.

IIRC The flywheel, clutch, and axels are going to have to be swapped as well...

Well if the flywheel has to be replaced....maybe the torque converter also.. I think you might be able to use the stuff off of your DX, but i'm not really sure. someone else would be able to help you more.
