im not completely sure but if you gave them the year of your car they should have given you the right ones (provided you paid for them) the shift linkage theyre giving you wont work and the axles should work

also i suggest changing the timing belt and water pump and upgrading your clutch

I am working on that swap right now for my 99 HX. Having some ECU/harness issues. The only thing that I would recommend is getting a good set of motor mounts. I went with the Innovation B series motor mounts from swap shop motors http://www.swapshopracing.com/contents/en-us/d675.html. I tried eBay but that was a nightmare.

right on agian, ok, i went to swapshop actually and saw they had two types of mounts, ones for the hydro and one for the cable. im gonna stick with the hydro, but that **** cost double what the cable mounts cost. it also comes with two extra brackets that i have no clue what to do with, i want to go with a cable to hydro conversion the one from hasport, and im pretty sure those bolt on the cross memeber. so what do i need those other brackets for. or should i just use the mounts that are for the cable. hahahaha sorry if that **** is messed up, just rambling on
