B18B into '96 EK hatch.. mount problems.
I'm wrapping up a '99 B18B swap into a friend's '96 Ek hatch and I've run into a problem with regards to the driver's side upper mount. The stock Civic liquid filled mount and bracket do no line up with the B18B mount on the front of the motor. I was originally told they would fit, then I was told I needed to use the bracket from a '99-00 Si since that's the actual problem I have (stock Civic bracket has more widley spaced holes than the B18B mount). Well my friend went and got the bracket and new mount from the dealer for a '99-00 Si... and the bracket STILL doesn't line up with the mount on the front of the B18B.
My last resort will be to take a drill and slot the bracket to fit both mount studs into the holes, but I was hoping I could avoid this. Can somebody give me a definative answer, which mount/bracket is used for the drivers side upper LS mount?
