im getting a b18a1 long block for free. and i have a 96 hatch. and someone told me i can use my stock mounts for the b18, but someone else told me i cant and i could use 99 si mounts. what is ture? i didnt think that i could use my stock mounts since they are sohc mounts until someone told me i could.

 

dont quote me ,,,but I believe you have to use the rear 99-2000 mount

 

you will need a new rear y tranny brace, and new front tranny brace i beleive... i have a EG and im not 100% familiar w/ the differences in the EK to EG chassis. just what i had to get.

yea thanks, when i had my eg i put a b18b1 in it and just had to change up the drivers side mount to a b series mount. this is my first swap in a ek so im not sure.

 

yea the drivers side mount will need to be changed also... i was so focused on the tranny brace and mount i forgot it.

If you have a 96 hatch, you will need the passenger side mounts from a DC or 99-00 Si. The rear transmission bracket HAS TO COME FROM A 99-00 SI.

The driver's side top mount from your 96 hatch can be reused as long as the B series bracket is still on the motor and it's a 2 stud bracket.

Your orignal AC mount (on the chassis side, not on the engine side) can be reused. The same goes for the passenger side-side transmission mount. The chassis side bracketing can be used. The engine side bracketing has to be from a DC or EM1.
