You just need any 2 post bracket. This is pretty basic swap stuff...

So the stock 2 hole bracket that attaches to the top of the stock mount pictured will work fine with the post mount shown on the motor? The car came missing the bracket so I want to make sure I order the right one.

The original 2 post/bolt "S" bracket which mounts between the top of the left engine mount and the 2 stud engine bracket is NOT the problem... your issue will be the CRV driver's side engine bracket that is bolted to the engine itself with 3 14mm bolts (two can be seen from the outside and one is hidden by the lower timing cover). This must be changed to the bracket found on the EM1 ('99-00 Civic Si). Then you will be fine.

100% INCORRECT. Know your facts before giving out false information bud...

Correct. The mount bracket you need is from 99-00 Civic Si. Honda PN# 11910-P30-000

You only need the bracket that connects them both. See here.

Hello fellow honda owners, I got a 1988 civic hatchback with a d15b dual carb, it smocks due to bad piston rings and valve seals, i got a friend who have 1987 accord with a b20a1 engine in it, so my question is can i swap the b20a1 into my civic and does it need fabrication if some sort or is it a straight swap ??
