Default Some new b series swap questions

I don't post on this forum much but I have been around for a few years. I just usually find what I need by searching, but this time I am coming up empty handed. I have done several swaps but this time we are missing parts and having a hard time getting our hands on them. Here is the scenario.

We are putting a b18a odo1 into a 91 Si hatchie. So far everything is going smooth. I have the injectors, harness, and dizzy for making the ls odo0 and we have the mount kit, axles, and shift linkage all sorted out.

Now the problem. We bought the mount kit used and it has been put up for a few months. My friend moved somewhere in the middle of all this. He has lost the rear mount for the mount kit. The one that bolts to the subframe and the t-bar.

Now the question, will the stock si hatchie mount back there work? The reason I ask is because people here have put b-series swaps in ef's buy bolting up the rear and welding the fronts so this leads me to believe that maybe, just maybe the rear stock one will work anyways and just use the other 2 mounts from our conversion kit. I hope one of you guys/girls knows and we can get this under way soon.

If not, I guess we will have to buy another mount kit, so we are hoping for the best, then we will just get some poly inserts for that mount from nopi.com for 7 bucks and call it a day.

Thanks.

Aight, thanks guys. I guess he is buying a new kit. It is one of those ebay kits but he got it for 30 bucks. I guess he is buying a new one for 120 now, cause we have already been trying to get just the one mount and we cant.

Thanks for the help.

Hmmm I always wondered if you could "make" the rear mount work since there are 2 sets of holes on the rear subfram (one set for USDM and one set for JDM motors) atleast thats what i found when doing research for my B swap...but if you can weld i'm sure you could make something, but probably easy to just get a new mount kit
