Hey there I just got done swapping a 90 ls into my 90 crx si and now it go to gear put wont lock? Does this mean I need a new clutch? When I put it in 1st gear I can still push the car. I need help because this is my dd.

If u mean it won't go into gear? Maybe your shift linkage might be bent. Have u tried putting it in first when it's off and moving it that way?

Make sure your axle is in all the way.

Even a clutch worn past the service limit will grab a little, enough to hear grinding sounds if you push it while in 1st gear. Check to see the shifter IS putting it into gear, and as mentioned, make sure both axles are in 100%. If one isn't in all the way and you have a non-LSD trans, the diff will spin and not get "locked" by the motor&clutch.
