VTEC is an acronym Honda use for Variable Cam Timing, and relates to the ability to alter cam timing through the rev range of an engine. It has nothing to do with transmission type, and can be used with any trans, manual, or any of the auto configurations.

Will a 1987 2.0 Si manual engine work to replace a 1988 2.0 si automatic engine in my 88 2.0 si automatic prelude?

Shouldn't be a problem. The only thing you want to make sure of is in the end of the crankshaft on the manual motor there should be a pilot bushing that centers the shaft of the manual transmission. This has to be removed so that the center of the torque converter on the automatic can go into the space.

Can you swap an engine with a manual transmission with one that has an automatic transmission?

yes. If you're only swapping the engine they're usually all the same. Ask someone at an AutoZone or specialized auto parts store for more information on swapping engines. You'll need a manual. And there are a lot of sensors involved, so don't forget to put everything back on when you're done swapping! Specialized cars have engines that aren't interchangeable, but usually its not the engine that has a distinction between auto and manual, its what is connected to the engine such as the transmission and the intermediaries between the two.
