Default What motor mount inserts do I need??

What's up everyone, I'm looking to get a Prothane motor mount insert kit for my 93 civic with a crvtec motor swap and I'm useing my stock upper left mount, upper tranny mount and rear motor mount but not too sure what kit to get, Now I know I prob need a kit for a sohc 92-95 civic but just wanted to make sure because when I when to my local proformance shop they only had kits (in stock) for a 99-00 si dohc, and 94-01 integra motor mount inserts. I know I cant use the Si kit since the left upper mount is diff, but was looking a the integra kit and looked like it might work but the price between the two was a jump. $40 for the Si kit and $80 for the integra. Both kits were Prothane. Any info would help. Thanks fellas

You should use the 92-95 Civic kit if you're using that year mounts.

Integra mounts are different and won't fit right without cutting. Found out the hard way.

The EG/DC Prothane kit is the same thing... You have to cut the center out of the driver side upper mount and then push in the Prothane... It's really not that bad, I had my friend cut it out like 3 days ago with a hacksaw while i dropped my other friends GSR into his EG. It took maybe an hour to cut it nicely but they are definately worth it... Also integra mounts are the exact same as EG (except for the driverside upper which is sometimes different, but the Prothanes won't even work for that SOHC mount anyways) only the rear GSR mount that bolts to the crossmember is stiffer.. With the '95 Si's you'll get the good driverside upper mount... Have fun... I got some pics of the motor so i'll put them up later..
