you will need a b series shift linkage since they are different than the d series shift linkages.

OK, can't believe no one has caught this yet but if you are trying to use the engine AND manual transmission from a 98 CRV, no Civic or Integra linkage will work because a CRV transmission is CABLE shifted like an H or F series.

You need to find a B series hydro transmission that is rod actuated. You need driver post mount and rear T bracket from a 99-00 Civic Si, torque mounts from a Civic, del Sol, or Integra with hydro trans, and just re use the rest of your mounts.
