Mounts

Driver side- Use the mount bracket I mentioned above. This piece bolts to the block below the cam gears. reuse the civic studs. Also, use all other civic parts at this location. (picture)

Rear tranny- Use the rear upper tranny bracket I mentioned above. Use the stock civic rubber mount. (picture)

AC Bracket- Use the ac bracket I mentioned above and reuse the civic stud and rubber mount. Integra piece is similar but won't work. (picture)

Front tranny bracket- Use integra piece on the tranny but civic stud and rubber mount. Integra stud and rubber looks the same but won't work.

Upper tranny mount- Use all the civic pieces.

If you do keep your ac, there is no need to discharge the system. Simply unbolt the ac compressor from the D motor before you take the D motor out of the car and strap it out of the way. When you put the B motor in the car, with the correct ac bracket, bolt the ac compressor back to the motor.

Also, nothing else from the D motor can be used including the tranny, axles, ecu, shift linkage. It won't work so throw it away.

no u don't need new mounts, although it wouldn't hurt to get better ones.
as for the a/c, no u don't -- undo the lines and put them into the b16's a/c compressor, no need to discharge the freon. and you can use everything that the b16 came with, it should mostly be plug and play, i believe u need to add knock sensor from the engine harness to the ECU connector, then plug it into the b16a's ecu.
