Default Problems with B16 swap in DA9

Aight, heres the deal. I've been slowly working on my swap which has been going on for a few months now (my job doesn't pay me enough). Anyway, the swap was a 88-91 B16a 1st gen Obd-0 into my 92 Integra RS (obd-1). I converted the engine to 0bd-1, new distributor from distributor king (great company), new jdm radiator hoses, spark plugs, etc. Everything seems to be bolted up, vacuum lines and such are in proper place. Now, my problem....I started it up earlier today, nice clean start, but idles ROUGH. Idle is at about 1100 rpm's. And to add, im running on my LS ECU, didn't change timing belt nor water pump (like i said, job doesn't pay enough). Anyway, also...my side motor mount, the nut that is welded to the frame where the mount goes in and bolt goes through is stripped. So the bolt just keeps on spinning. Could this be why my motor shakes hard? And my overall question is, wtf is wrong wit it!?! lol. I need help but theres just too much to explain. Can I also add that for some reason it sounds like a lawn mower ...Is there anyone that lives in the Philly area or anywhere around my way (Morrisville, PA) that can stop by and help me out? Thanks for any info in advanced

I've double checked the vacuum lines and there are no leaks. I heard that the 2 plugs that are connected to the t/b are exactly the same, but if their not in the right spot, it can cause the engine to idle rough. Could that maybe be the problem?
