theres many configurations to do it.

for my d-to-b swap (in a delsol... same chassis 'eg'), i used:

1. existing manual tranny mount from my d motor (identical to its b counterpart)
2. teg/delsol vtec rear bracket
3. teg/delsol vtec driver's side mount and bracket
4. teg a/c mount for the bottom (cuz i've heard stories about the upper driver's side mount failing)

hydro b-series transmission casings are identical.

if anything is wrong, correct me.

Just get all the mounts from a 94+ Integra... Del Sol will work too.... The only things that will work off the 99-2000 Si are the front lower mounts.. If your car is a CX you will probably want to get a new rear mount that bolts to the crossmember.. Normally you don't get these with swaps.. And for that too I would just it from an Integra.. They are normally the easiest to come buy... If you really want that motor stiff then just get some Prothane inserts.... For those DC and EG are the same

"now im not sure what tranny i will be using yet (ls or gs-r) "

if youre going turbo-ls
na-gsr

i assume youre going turbo if you swapped in a ls, so go with the ls tranny

im doing the same swap right now too
