So i did a tranny swap and got a b16 tranny into my 98 civic. It has a B&M short shifter. Now its very hard to shift into first gear, i can do it sometimes but most of the time i can't. all the other gears are fine. there's no noise what so ever. Also it feels like the gears have moved somewhat, it feels like 1st is where 3rd is and 3rd is where 5th is. I never had this problem before the swap. is it the tranny for the shifter bushings?? any help is apricated.

 

bump

 

try shifting into 2nd before shifting into 1st gear then try shifting into 1st should go in easier

 

i can only do it sometimes, 1st gear gets block even if i shift from 2nd gear.
