Default Mount Question

It appears I have the wrong motor mounts. I'm swapping a b18b1 into my 93 civic hatch.

The bracket on my block that I picked up has 3 holes, but only 2 studs are in there (so I assumed you could use a 2 bolt style?) Apparently it won't work, the bolts are too close together for the mount. Should I return the kit or just buy a 2 bolt bracket and replace that? And if I should just get a new bracket, who has one for sale?

I guess I should just ask if the EGSTK will fit in my car if I replace that one bracket to a 2 bolt left? Or will the other two mounts not fit either? Somebody please help so I know if I had to return these or not


Thanks in advance.

Well then which kit is the proper kit? I think the bracket I bought is just the wrong bracket, but Idk if the other mounts will fit? I'm pretty confused... EGSTK or ?

My gut feeling is that if I were to just replace the left mount to a 2 bolt I would be fine, I don't want to have to pay shipping and restocking fee's if I don't have to

All the research I've been doing says that b18c has a 3 bolt, b16/b18(a/b) use 2 bolt. Apparently I got the b18c bracket and I need a b16/b18 bracket. And they are interchangeable, I was just worried the other two mounts wouldn't fit, but they should be the same?

they are the same only thing that changes in the driver side mount depending on which bracket you have.

If you have the B18b1 with the 3 hole driver mount you'll want to use any aftermarket for a DC2 Integra or use 94-01 Integra mounts. Hope that helps
