you need the driver side mount that came with the vtec motor
No, you can use the 88-91 mount bracket, and then use the stock mount (you can notch the bolt holes so that the mount sits straight. You also have to machine the bracket down so that it doesn't hit the timing belt. I can post a pic if you want...

heres what i used, its pretty good, but no one ever mentions the fact you can use a PR3 ecu w/ knock disable and it runs GREAT and all you have to do is run two vtec wires

Ive always wondered, can you run a B16 ecu with a y8 since it has a knock sensor? Does it work right?
