Default B16A swap into 96 Civic - Question about engine brackets

I'm gonna to be doing a swap in my 96 Civic soon. I was originally gonna rebuild the engine but the block is cracked. That went out the window. After looking around and decided to go with a B16A. http://www.hmotorsonline.com/shop/sc...age&item=30005

Now, after looking around, I found im gonna need a couple brackets for this swap. http://www.swapshopracing.com/contents/en-us/p3655.html and http://www.swapshopracing.com/contents/en-us/p4995.html

Are these the 2 brackets im gonna need minus the ones that come with the engine?

My plans are to aim for roughly 275-300 WHP with 10-15 PSI.

I also plan on getting the upgraded P28 with the S300 from those guys also.

I have $7000-$8000 to play around with.

get a b18c1(gsr) more torque then a 1.6L and a better platform, 7-8K will net you 300+whp you're going to need aftermarket internals tho to be safe.

http://www.hmotorsonline.com/shop/sc...age&item=30009 this one? If so, the brackets that I posted in my first, are those the ones I need?

yah that one, and the t-bracket in the first post should work yes you could go with the 3 hole drive mount from an integra imo it's a bit tuffer. but that one would work too.

96 models can't use the 3 hole motor mount, what are you talking about. Unless the OP is getting all new mounts from HASPORT than yes keep the 3 hole post mount and order the correct kit.

the engine comes with a 3 hole post mount seeing as it's from an integra so he may as well use it, the 6th gen driver side mounts are not sturdy at all(not referring to the post one).

At least supply him with additional information on the correct mount to get along with the bracket because it is different from the em1 si. Thats why I suggested getting the hasport mount to go along with the 3 bolt post bracket.
