ok cool thanks for the info ms. leia
another issue I have, I need a bitch pin (shift linkage to tranny pin). can you buy those at the honda dealership?
My swap didn't come with one, and since I bought my hatch motorless I don't have a spare. I'm thinking it'll be another week til I round up all my other parts for the swap. Little things take time, but at least nothing serious has gone wrong. It's a good thing anyway because it forces me to take my time and not rush.
