Default WTF!!! Help

Okay i am new to this board i found it b/c i am having some problems with my car and i thought you people are probably smarter than myself so i got a question. OKay i have a 95 civic ex coupe. I recently did a b16a2 swap....I have driven the car for over a week now since i got it done i have drove it quite easy for the first like 700 miles then i did a oil change and then i went out to see what she had. I guess none of that really matters but anyways i came home one night and i parked it in my drive way and i left the transmission in 4th gear and shut it off and pulled up the e-brake. My driveway is on a slant so i always leave it in a gear. When i came out the next morning my car ws stuck in 4th gear like the tranny itself not the shifter. I can shift to 1st,2nd,3rd,5th, and reverse. it doesn't go actually in those gears the tranny still seems to be in 4th no matter what....The linkage is binding at all i don't what seems to be the problem i called a few places and they told me they had no clue....someone got any answers

There's really no other explanation. Unless you are diagnosing the problem incorrectly.
