Default *EG with an ITR heart transplant*

The plan is to swap a B18C-R into my EG . I have the motor lined up so what's next?

Shift linkage?
Do I have to by a new shifter (current B&M short throw)?
Motor mounts, I was told I need a GSR rear mount, is that true?
What kind of radiator should I get?
It's going sit right, so what kind of gas should I run? 91 right?
My Si has a tach, should I get an aftermarket tach or is the one in my Si alright?
I'll have to extend the wires for Vtec right?

I've never done a swap like this before, so help would be cool. I want to make sure that I have everything before I do the swap, so i can drop it in and start it up.
I'll post pics after it's in, I'm making this my project car.

Here's the patient that's getting the heart transplant.

The best picture I have (right now).

What kind of radiator should I get? I'm running a stock one, its fine. Del Sol ones are good.
It's going sit right, so what kind of gas should I run? 91 right? Premium fuel only
My Si has a tach, should I get an aftermarket tach or is the one in my Si alright? I have an EG6 cluster
I'll have to extend the wires for Vtec right? You car is wired for VTEC. Wire for knock sensor

Looks like I found a motor to swap into the hatchie. Just asking for some advice before I shoot my foot off.

Your gonna need b series axels....my guess is you'll get it with the swap depending where you get the swap from.

Man no matter how prepared you are, its never a drop it in and start it up situation. I do swaps in the local honda shop on weekends all the time and even there where you would think all the parts you could ever need would be, something still comes up missing and takes an extra day.
