Default 3 mounts OK?

Ok guys, I have a 94 GSR motor with a LS cable tranny that I'm dropping into a 93 Civic Hatch (I bought the hcp EG 18-C bolt in kit from http://www.hcpengineering.com to make the cable tranny work with a hydro car.) Well, anyhow, I have a good idea of what mounts I need and so forth except for the tranny mount. I already have the rear mount, the side timing belt mount, and the side tranny mount. (The side tranny mount came with the kit that I bought from hcp.) I was wondering, would that be enough mounts for the motor? What other mounts would I need? Looking at a recent post by 93Civac, https://honda-tech.com/zeropost?cmd=tshow&id=905320, the picture shows 5 mounts total for the GSR. I won't be installing the AC mount so that is out of the question. That still leaves that right front mount. I looked at my LS tranny and can tell that the mount in the picture will not fit on it. Is there another mount that I can use or will I even need that 4th mount? Any inputs would would be great. If anyone out there has used a cable tranny in a hydro 92-95 Civic Hatch, your inputs would be greatly appreciated. Thanks guys!

If you have solid mounts for the 3 upper ones, you don't have to run the front lower torque mounts. It's really nice because it cleans up the engine bay quite a bit.

I'm not sure by what you mean by solid mounts, but the side timing belt and rear mounts will be stock GSR parts and the tranny side mount will be the mount that came with the hcp kit. I hope that will be enough.
