Default Problems with my b18c1 in my ef hatch

I have a 91 dx hatch and I am putting a b18c1 in I have the motor in and I have run in to some issues with the cooling lines going back to the heater core. Also I am using the innovative mounts they a a pine nothing lines up if any one has done this before I need some help I am in the process of trying to level the motor and the holes on the driver side mount does not work. Oh yeah I am using the hydro to cable conversion just let you know. if anyone has any info please let me know?
thanks.

Do you have pics? A visual would help. I've run into this problem with innovative mounts, but on a EK with an H22. I used hasport mounts with no probs.

I've done the same swap w/ the Ebay Yonaka mounts and have the same problem w/ leveling the motor. The closest I can get it 2 being level is about a 1/8" off on the DS I've grown to accept it tried everything to fix it other than new mounts. Also for the record I haven't snapped any axles yet w/ the LSD, and I go to the track EVERY Fri.
