its a 98 EX 4-door...do i need new mounts? someone said i can reuse the stock ones

you need b series mounts i believe for the ek you'll just need the upper driver side and one of the tranny mounts.

driver side mount that bolts to the block, front tranny mount and rear t-bracket. also you should use a b-series ac bracket

don't forget your throttle cable too...also you'll need the upper driver side mount specifically for b-series...aftermarket i'd prefer...

you actually only need, lower tranny mount, upper tranny mount, rear t-mount, and lower ac mount... driver side upper mount can be reused... all upper driver mount for all 96-00 including si, are the same... pretty much anything else are different..... you'd need a b series radiator.. i reused my stock throttle cable.. its just mounted weird..

all is false..you only need the left bracket that bolts up to the motor and re use the stockmount as its the same for all ek's..and then you need the back tranny bracket..they are the only 2 you need to put the motor in..you can use your same radiator.

Mount not bushing u can reuse your old bushing but mounts aren't the same. I swapped a b16 in my 99 ex. I had to replace the rear bracket lower tranny bracket and ac bracket. I reused all my orginal bushing

radiator will fit with modification d- series hose is smaller than b series. Hoses are dlifferent also.

I know this from my own experience. I think I know why I did when I swapped my own motor

Hose size for radiator is 28 mm for D series and 32 mm for B series. Use 32 mm B series hoses and worm gear hose clamps... done.

Oh yeah, and F**k A/C. I loved not having it in my swap, what a waste of power and weight, besides the engine bay looks much cleaner w/o it! imo

yeah no A/C might be OK in chicago, but if you live down south or southwest, A/C is a must, especially for a daily driver.

thanks...i asked because i was getting different info..but thanks and it should go smoooooooooooooth

Haha, Actually Chicago can get pretty nasty. It was uncomfortable but worth it in the long run. Also in the process i lost the heat function of my car. In extreme cold the open engine bay never allowed for the coolent to get hot enough to produce heat, unless it was idled for a very long time.
sorry to jack the thread....anyways

Stock mounts wont work, but if you're looking for a set of B series mounts, i have a set of Hasports from my brother's 98 EX coupe for sale. PM me if you want more info on them...
