Default Special parts needed to swap from a parts car?

Looking at maybe picking up a busted Integra for a swap, if i do this, do i need anything special to put it in or can i use the mounts, linkages, etc?

when you think of the b-series dont think of that engine,,its completly different then the rest..

you can use the shift linkage if you cut and reweld..the radiator works with very minor mods..and its thicker then the stock civic/crx one..only one of the engine mounts line up,,so....and most aftermarket mount kits require the use of the 90-93 intera rear mount bracket,,so you have that also....you can also take the brakes..some other stuff also.

the passenger side mount lines up but the others dont..im sure you can make them fit if you're good with fabrication....

if you cant do that sort of stuff then yes you'll need a mount kit..if you want some dirt cheap ones that work well streetimports.com has some for $100..

Oh, okay, thanks again, good price for mounts. Just brainstorming something to stick into my hatch, engine in it died.
