I just picked up an 89 festiva last week and besides a bad clutch the shifter has so much play in it i couldn't get into 2nd gear without having the seat all the way back.
I did a search and it looks like noone has been able to find replacement bushings.
Does anyone know if bushings from another vehicle would work or any other things i can do to stiffen up the linkage. Right now there are absolutely no bushings left its all metal on metal at each joint.
On a side note, i've done some searching about waht trannys to use with engine swaps what if i wanted to swap the tranny first will the f or g trannies bolt up to the b3 without any mods? what flywheel and clutch would i use, the b3 or for the car the tranny came from or for the engine i plan to swap?
My dilema is that i need to fix some things right away but i dont want to pay for repairs and then pay again when i do a swap.
Thanks for any help
