Shift linkage
Are all b-series shift linkage the same?
The shift linkage that came with my swap does not want to match up.
Its a jspec b18c and the shift linkage says ek on it.

Re: Shift linkage (Scot project)
Depends on the car. if you are swapping a B series into an EG/EK, then yes B series shift linkage will work.
If it's an EF then you need to have it trimmed and re-welded to fit.

No all B Series linkages are not the same. The Del Sol VTEC has it's own linkage and the 90-93 Integra will only fit those years (or can be modded for EF B series swaps). Then you have the 94-01 Integra and 99-00 Civic Si which are interchangeable and will fit all 92-95 EG Civic's and 96-00 EK Civic's.

When you say it doesn't match up, is it too short? too long? or will it not even mount up properly? What car is this B18C swap going into?

Re: Shift linkage (Scot project)
Lookie here:
After messing with it for a long while i took it apart to see if it would be easier. I still didnt have any luck. But i snapd a pic of one part.
Does this look more bent then it should be?

A little bent??? Uhhhh that might be the reason it doesn't fit... If the linkage was meant to be connected to the steering rack it would probably fit fine

Re: Shift linkage (VTECVillain)
Yea i thought so. damn it.
Well its now been some time since i bought the motor "complete change over" from this shop.
Do you think they should swap it out for a good one?

Well who ever got hit by this "weapon". I am sure they got messed up. Too bad i missed it.
- Do you think trying to bend in into the right shape would work?
