F18 gearbox alternatives (classic mini swap)

Hi all 

 

I’m after abit of advice from the Honda team, I’ve started doing a Honda conversion in my classic mini 

so far I’ve decided best bang for buck power/cost wise is the F18 engine out of a 51 plate shape accord is perfect (the D16 out of the same age civic is smaller and a better fit but less power and more expensive) 

The F18 gearbox is somewhat bulky and would struggle to fit it within a started front end mini. Is there any other gearboxes such as the D16 that fit with the F18 engine ? 
 

I know there are other engine and gearbox options available such as B16/18 but these are very expensive in comparison to the F18 lump but would their gearboxes work? 
 

PS im Yet to buy the Honda donor car so open to most options 

cheers team
