Default B20a5 question

I found a b20a5 for sale for $50 and I have a 90 civic Dx shell sitting around. I did some searching on this subject and I could not find one thread on some one doing this swap. ( The b20a5 is out of a 1988 Prelude Si 135hp 135tq )

-Do they make mounts for this swap?
-Would it be worth the time money?

What do you guys think?

I think the concensus is that the motor out of the 88-91 (I think) prelude is not cost effective, since it is different the the other B series motors it doesn't use the standard mounts available on the aftermarket, so you would have to fabricate them......if your into that it could be cool, but otherwise, don't bother, go buy a b18b.....
