You can use all the mounts from the Del Sol, you will however need a shift linkage from a '94 - '01 Integra, the Del Sol linkage is too long (its also worth some money)

If its coming from an EK you can't use any of the mounts other than the brackets for the front lower torque mounts and the torque mounts themselves. Rear T/L bracket needs to come from a '94 - '01 Integra or '94 - '97 Del Sol VTEC. Timing belt mount you can do one of two things, you can use the 2 post mount thats on it and use a stamped steel D-series mount, or you can swap out the timing belt mount for one from an integra in combination with the Integra aluminum mount. (really you could just trade your friend for his ITR mount because he wont be able to use it in an EK, assuming it came with mounts) Upper transmission mount needs to come from a '94 - '01 Integra, '93 - '97 Del Sol or '92 - '95 Civic. Thats right, the D-series upper transmission bracket is identical to the B-series variant, just make sure it came from a 5 speed. If you plan on running air and power steering get the lower A/C bracket from a '94 - '95 Del Sol VTEC.

Raer T/L bracket is the rear engine bracket, it looks like a T or an L. You can reuse the driver's side mount as well if the B16 has the 2 post mount on it, if has a 3 post mount you will need an integra aluminum driver's side mount (also found in '94 - '95 Si's and VXs (possibly EXs as well))

The rubber lower torque mounts will be retained, but the brackets need to be from a B-series.
