Default b18 swap in EF rear mount help!

I swapped in a B series into my 91 hatch and Im having a issue with the back metal piece that bolts onto the rear mount/tranny. I received a mounting bracket for this whole swap going into this model civic, but it does not fit, to big. I searched for the 91 integra bracket and i came down to this part number 50827-SK7-020 , correct me if im wrong but is it this the right bracket that im needing?
any help would be appreciated

You also might have to cut off or bend the lip of the rear subframe for clearance

i have heard this too, about folding the lip on the rear. some say they didnt need to do it, and some say they had to. i guess it depends on which mounts you are using.

Hasport has this in their instructions to use their mounts, at least the older billet mounts for the cable tranny. Not sure about other manufacturers.


I just got that T-bracket from my local junkyard.
