No welding neccesary. Just replace all the mounts an rear tranny bracket with the manny brackets and mounts and you'll be good ta go. Exmple:B18 engine needs B18 manual mounts and bracket.

If the ones that comes with the swap is still good, with no tears or anything...then you can use them.

Its not hard if u have easy access to parts and know what your doing. If not it can be a nightmare finding all the **** you need. Check out this site: www.hondaautomotiveparts.com for a easy referance guide or the acura site in my sig. i had a little trouble my first time cause i couldn't get all the **** from one spot. Check out those sites and order what u need from them intead of bustin *** to every junk yard like i did.
