Redpepperracing.com should have the wealth of info you are after. Should be able to run either cable or hydro gearbox just need adaptors or modifications but cable would be easier. The car has already been coverted to EFI with the D16/ZC engine (likely from a first gen integra) so that makes it easier.

Engine you want will fit in the bay and has been done a few times in Australia, I'm sure I've even seen off the shelf mounts before but can't remember where sorry. ED/EF bay is very different
