the hydro tranny sits to far forward when bolted to the engine. cable only, unless you want to notch the frame.

You can do a DIY swap with factory hydro parts from a Civic/Integra, which I've seen a few times with great success but it's not easy by far. You could also contact Place Racing and see what they can do.

Mounting the transmission is going to be a problem in and of itself. The only way I know of to do this (besides welded in mounts) is to use the Place Racing kit with their hydraulic transmission mount. But even after you get it mounted, you will have to find a way to actuate it. And I don't know who makes an actuator. The only other option is to try to rig up a hydraulic system in your car. But this is not at all easy.
