Default b18b in 93 civic ex mounts?

I have done a search and also get conflicting info from people around here. I have a 1993 civic ex sedan (auto with a blown engine) and I am getting a wrecked 1998 integra ls 5 speed and need to know, can I use the mounts I have? Or maybe a combo of mounts from both cars? I know about the wiring and ecu conversion and that I need a special mount for the transmission conversion. Some people say I can use a combination of mounts from both cars and others say I need a mount kit. I know I have a heavy car and would like the torque from a b18b, but if it's going to be a lot of trouble, I can just replace the engine thats in it and do a 5sp conversion w/ a home made turbo setup. So please say the stock mounts will work! By the way, I have ABS and don't know about the teg, will the teg axles still work with the swap? Thanks for any help.

You'll need the upper "timing belt" mount, lower "AC" mount, front lower tranny mount, and the rear mount bracket (metal mount on the back of the motor) from the LS.

You can reuse the civic rear lower mount, and the two front lower torque mounts.

For the auto to manual swap you will need to either cut the upper tranny mount bracket off, weld a manual mount in, then re-use the civic upper mount.

OR

Do it the easy way and buy an auto to manual conversion mount from a company like Place Racing.

The axles will bolt up regardless if your car has ABS or not. If you get non ABS axles with the swap, your ABS will not work though.

I myself have done both the LS swap into my 95 EX, and an auto to manual swap in a 97 Integra LS.

HTH...
