Im almost at the point of putting a 97 b18b in my 98 Civic EX. I wanted to know if it would be worth it to purchase SI motor mounts, not the brackets, but the actual mounts themself. I know you can use your stock SOHC mounts but would it be better to use SI mounts? thanks for any info.

Your 97 DX mounts and Si mounts are exactly same sh*t. One thing I do suggest is that you get the Place Racing timingbelt-side rubber mount. The Si and 96-00 CX/DX timing belt (rubber liquid filled) mount tends to rip over a period of time, and the Place Racing mount is the remedy. You can also get motor mount inserts if you'd like reinforced engine mount support.
