okay, my car is a 92 integra LS, the motor im trying to put in is a 2000 b16a2 out of a civic Si, the trans is a YS1 gsr cable trans. I am using all the stock mounts from my b18a1


Now my problem is, i lowered the motor and trans in as one piece and bolted up the rear motor mount first, the front motor mount second, the passenger trans mount third, and when i got to the driverside mount thats plainly visible, the mounting bolts on the motor were about an inch or 2 back towards the firewall from where the bracket for the mount is welded onto the frame rail. what the hell? i can barely move the motor at all so there is no bargaining with the position of the motor. from my understanding i can use all my mounts from my b18a with the b16 im putting in, correct? the only thing i can think of is that the actual mounting spot on the b16 is different due to it originating in a civic chassis resulting in it not lining up, other than that im stumped, how do i fix this? did i do something wrong?

i REALLY NEED my car up and running and i am running into one setback after another and its really bumming me out, any help or input would be greatly appreciated, this is the only real thing holding me back from completing this and getting my car back on the road, if anybody has had this same problem, please lmk what the problem was and how you fixed it, thanks

 

do the 2 side mounts first. leave the rear bracket a little loose so it will be easier to slide over the rear mount while your lining the side ones up
