cant see **** just X's

 

pics are up

 

nope not yet

 

they are now

 

I've done a swap on my cousin's civic hx with an b18b motor too. And we use just englarge the holes with a drill so it would fit. It was ghetto and my cousin was a cheap ***. Another one I did i use a 99-00 driver side mount and the side egine mount bracket and everything bolted right up, i think Its been 3 years since I've done this swap. Which mounting kit did you get?

 

You have to use the bracket (the one that attaches to the engine block) from a 99-00 SI. I just did my swap not long ago and it went just fine. Hope that helps.

 

i bought a hasport kit................the driver side engine bracket can be bought at honda???????or do they have a aftermarket one?????????and thanks for the help guys

use 99-00 si/SiR or 96-01 CRV block mount both are the same.

94-01 integra block mount is different then most 92-00 civic block mounts (some 94-5 vx/si civics) used the same integra mount which is not compatiable

use the stock civic engine bracket from your sohc you currently have and remove the ls bracket....all 96-00 sivics uses the same drivers side engine mount design.so dont bother buying a 99-00 mount,on a swap like this into your 96-00 civic the only mount that is needed to work for any dohc swap is the 99-00 si mount for the rear....i hope this helps clear up alot of the false confusion.

 

yea i try that..............the ls engine bracket have three bolts on it and the civic as two and they don't line up.so that is where i am stuck at

 

i forgot about that its a 2 hole.wow now i dont know what i had done .now im confussed..get that si mount

 

i believe the part that connects to the ls block you need to order the 99-00 Si bracket but the hasport mount you have looks correct

good luck

i was just gonna say that

 

i told him that last night on here

 

i try to put the civic engine bracket on the ls motor..............but the ls have three bolts holding it to the motor and the civic have two.so then i just try to put the civic on by just putting in the two bolts but it doesn't line up to the holes already made on the engine

 

No u can't use ur stock SOHC civic engine bracket like stated above. You have to buy the 99-00SI DOHC Bracket

 

aight i bought the bracket today from honda for 50 bucks(discount).i have to wait b/c it had to be order.should have it in 2 days.thanks for the help on the problem i will keep u guyz posted
