Default swap problem

So im in the process of swapping a B18b into my 89 CRX SI and i have the hasport mount kit , so i go to put it in and the drivers side mount sits crooked , you slide it over the studs on the block and it should go in parrallel into the brace on the car where the bolt goes through , but it sits on a angle. Anybody else have this sorta problem ?

You need to use a 90-93 Integra driver's side engine mount bracket, that's why it's not fitting right.

your motor is a 92, your car needs a 90-91 engine bracket. theres no way out of it.

If the motor is a 92 then it's a B18A. If it says B18B then it's a 94-01 motor and you will need to use the 90-93 Integra driver's side mount bracket.

The 90-93 Integra driver's side mount brackets are the same part. The same engine bracket was used across the DA chassis through those years. The major difference in the 92-93 Integra as opposed to the 90-91 was the switch from OBD0 to OBD1.

see this is where im confused , it has the old ribbed valve cover , it says 92 on the block ,but it says b18b on it .
But if it says b18b on it it had to come outta a dc integra as far as i know

if your mount has two pointed studs coming up, it is the wrong part. all of the aftermarket mount kits are based on the 90-93 bracket.
