New Motor Mounts to swap a JDM B18C1 into a 92 GS?
I've got a 92' Integra GS. I'm bought a jackson racing super charger for the B18C1 engine because I found a good deal on it.
Anyway, I've gotta swap the GSR engine in so I can put the super charger on it...
Question 1: Am I going to need new motor mounts? If so, is there a company that makes mounts for this conversion- as I would assume it's a fairly common one.
Some Other Questions: I know that the JDM GSR engine has a higher compression ratio-- which is going to be bad if I run the upgraded boost pulley on the JRSC-- would it be better for me to buy the US-Spec engine? Although, I know it's a lot easier to find a low mileage J-Spec, than a low mileage US-Spec. It has also been suggested to me that I look for a high mileage US-Spec GSR swap and rebuild it for FI. The only problem with that plan is that I am having a hard time finding any high mileage US-spec engines for less than I could get a J-Spec for (which only has 30K miles on it). So, what would you guys recommend?
I know it's a lot to think about- but any help you guys can give me will be appreciated. This is going to be my first swap, and my first FI engine. So I'm gonna need you guys a lot along the way. Thanks a lot guys.
