Bump for a friend...we searched and couldnt find anything specific about mounts for an ek when your car is auto and you are doing a B18 swap. Thanks

I think the tranny mounts are the same, I've got an '88 CRX that I had to have the mounts cut and rewelded though.

Yeah that would help if he had an 88 crx what about a 96 CIVIC?

Re: (95excoupe)

I've done it to my 99 coupe. Its the same as doing a 5 speed. All the mounts will fit. Just like a regular swap, you have to use the 99-00 si rear tranny mount, top tranny mount and on the timing belt side, you also have to use the si engine mount with the stock civic or si bracket that bolts on to the mount. The rest, you could use from the b18c. You also have to cut a hole where the shift linkage shifter is going to go because the hole that's on the car right now for the auto shifter is too short and too small. Plus you also have to add all the other stuff like pedals, clutch cylinder, clutch lines, etc. Let me know if you have any other questions.
