if you have a 99-00 SI swap you can use the stock sohc upper tranny mount and timing belt mount
then you need 94+ teg or 99-00 SI front torque mounts
but he has aftermarket mounts so all he needs is the rear SI bracket

stock sohc upper tranny mount works on dohc, are you talking about the front torque mount?

Re: b16 in a ek, L bracket? (Timmay)
yeah that mount that you bought will prolly not work for a 1st gen b16, unless you get a driverside claw braket. Or unless b16 mount will be able to go into that bracket for that mount. Yea I know it sounds confusing. But next time, before you go out and buy **** figure out what you really need.
and Yes you need the L bracket that goes between the rear of the engine and crossmember (right by the firewall). You need one of 99-00 SI.
