Help with B16 shift linkage?????
Hey guys
I'm swapping a B16 into my 88 hatch. Now, I have cut and welded linkage, that I got from a local engine supplier. Fitment is perfect, except for when I put it in first, it hits something and makes a loud clunking noise. It only does this in first. I thought that it was the weight on the back of the shifter rod, so I cut it down. makes no difference. Help?

Get under the car and look at it, and have a friend put it in first and see what is hitting. It is either hitting the exhaust. Or they could have turned the linkage when the welded it causing a bind.

Do you have an aftermarket exhaust? and/or short shifter?

If you have a short shifter, you're most likely tapping your exhaust pipe. I do that all the time with my short shifter, but it's usually going into 5th.

No, it's stock DX exhaust and a stock shifter. w00t! Well, maybe it is hitting the exhaust. If it is, how do I fix this??
