Easiest solution is a 92-95 Civic EX or Si harness for best plug and play. You can also reuse your stock harness and add the necessary wiring. Regardless of which harness you choose, you will still have to add/mod wiring on the chassis side harness.

The second gen B16 tranny as well as your stock DX tranny are both hydraulic operated. You can reuse your stock upper tranny mount on the B16 tranny. You will need a 94-01 Integra front lower tranny dampening mount though.

You don't want the 1st gen B16 PR3/PW0 since it's OBD0 and will not plug into your ECU plugs without an adaptor harness and even then your back-dating. You'll want to get a OBD1 P30 (2nd gen B16/Del Sol VTEC) or a chipped P28.

Swapping a B series in an EG only requires a mix of OEM mounts. You'll need a 94-01 Integra driver's side bracket and mount and a rear bracket as well. Reuse your stock upper tranny mount then get a 94-01 Integra front lower tranny mount. You'll need a Del Sol VTEC A/C bracket if you want to retain A/C or any 94-01 Integra A/C bracket if you aren't using the A/C.
