Sounds good to me, make sure you have another car to be able to make trips to Autozone or something because youll always be making trips for little things.

If you have any questions ask and well help you through it. Good luck.

Make sure you get the proper shift linkages, my motor swap had linkages from a hatch and they were too short for my coupe.. (Firewall position is slightly different) I just bought 99-00 Civic SI linkages but this was for a B16A swap, I'm sure they would work fine for your swap as well (not 100% positive, can anyone confirm?)
