Ok for one.....were not converting to manual, if we were going to do that i wouldnt have posted.

We have a 95 integra LS tranny (automatic) but its too wide for the bracket and its also hitting the frame rail on the bottom.
Sources are saying a 92-93 auto trans buttttttt i want to be 100% sure before we go and get it

the engine bays are all the same. the only thing different that i know of is the actual tranny bracket welded on the chassis, but the difference only applies to manual and auto, not auto to auto.

Are ypou trying to use the stock tranny mount from the manual? If so, that is your problem because the engine bay is not. Be it LS or JDM B16.
