Re: welding mounts
the tranny mount wouldn't be a lot of work at all to weld but if you're looking to take it back to a B-Series you're wasting your time. It's not worth it. You'll have to re-weldd and re-fab that entire frame

Re: welding mounts
just weld it back on...I just did this for my buddies eg...had a k20, went back to a B (long story) I grabbed the mount from a junk yard...but they are really cheap brand new from honda, worth it for the new peice from honda imho because it's a real hassle to get it from a donor car without destroying it (at least for me it was)
once you have the mount, just measure it up (I used my eg for measurements since it still only has a D) Once it's measured just weld it back in place...drop a swap in it to make sure it all fits and your on your way...I was a little sketched out by the idea at first too, but the whole project probably only took an hour, and that included throwing a B series in the bay to make sure the swap fit and the axles weren't all out of whack
or like dinthanonh said, just do the k20 swap
