Just picked up a bunch of stuff from the junkyard:
-Radiator. I believe the Honda hoses are 7/8" and Geo 1"....we'll see how that goes
-Heater/fan control. I took a gamble and got one from a hatchback. I know these aren't the same as CRX, but it seems like it should work since the main operation is a bunch of pull-cables. If the plug for the fan speed doesn't fit, I can always go back and grab the plug from the junkyard.
-Shift linkage. Honda's shift linkage leans toward the opposite side of the engine bay that the geo does. Luckily the shop I'll be working in tomorrow to do the mounts has a pipe bender! Bend, chop, and weld the geo motor-side ends on.
The b!tch pin actually wasn't hard at all for me to get out. I ended up taking one of the core support bolts out (10mm) and using that as a punch. It hammered right outta there.
I may end up trying the tilted radiator thing, but I really doubt it's going to fit. Not a lot of real estate in that area.
Still haven't decided on how to do the wiring yet... I'm thinking it may be easier for me to use the XFi harness so I can have a reference for where all those plugs went, then hack it up in one central location as opposed to cutting twice with the crx harness (unless of course the ECU pins from the honda pop right out and fit perfectly into the geo plugs).
I'll probably have some pictures tonight. Stay tuned!
