Default does a GSR shift linkage fit in a del sol?

i'm going to swap a B18C1 pretty soon and i need to know if the GSR shift linkage i have will fit into a del sol. i know a del sol vtec shift linkage will work, but if the gsr shift linkage fits that would be even better. or could i maybe modify my current shift linkage for a d-series motor to fit up to a gsr motor?

Ive been told the VTEC Del Sol linkage is the only one that works, but i may be wrong.

As for moding a shift linkage, if you cut the bar and weld it back together it becomes weaker, and if its not aligned right on, your always going 2 have a difficult time shifting...

you can only use the delsol b series linkage. The integra linkage wont work due to it has different bends.

Mostly because the Del Sol shifter sits a good 6" higher than a Civic or Integra. If you look at a Del Sol shift linkage (SOHC or DOHC) next to an Integra linkage, it's bent like a "C" and the shifter is much higher.

alright. so when i order a b-series shift linkage for the del sol will i need the stabilizer bar as well? or will my existing stabilizer bar work with the del sol vtec shift linkage?

the stabilizer bars have different style ends that bolt to the tranny,so you'll need it too.
