there are 5 mounts/brackets total

1. bracket under cam gears: get one from an 99-00 civic SI
2. a/c bracket: you can use any b-series bracket but not all the bolts on the a/c compressor will bolt up, only two will bolt up. if you want everything bolt to bolt up, get a b-series bracket from a DOHC delsol (saying you use the d-series) compressor
3. rear mount under intake mani: you need one from a 99-00 civic SI (bracket that is shaped like a T
4. top tranny mount: you can reuse this mount from the civic
5. side tranny mount: you'll need one from a b-series motor

and all other mounts/rackets that are attached to the car and not the motor, you can reuse the civic ones..

You can use the mount also, but it's the same as your stock mount.

If you are calling the front tranny mount the side tranny mount then you can use either a 99-00 Si or a 94-01 Integra bracket then reuse the stock Civic rubber mount that goes under the frame rail.

The GSR mount will not work, you need the 99-00 Si bracket and then reuse your stock mount. Once you get the Si bracket and compare it to the GSR bracket, you'll see the difference.

if your swap didn't come with number 10, then u need that one. as for the a/c bracket, like i mentioned before you can use the one that came with the swap (if it came with one) but only two bolts will bolt up. it will hold until u get a a/c bracket from a dohc delsol. actually, im still only running two bolt for the a/c compressor, and have not had a problem yet. it's been about a yr now, since my swap..
