Default B20 MOUNT ISSUE FOR "EG"...NEED HELP

i have the timing belt bracket / motor mount and tranny mount bolted on, and the REAR LOWER TRANNY MOUNT will not line up correctly leaving about a 1 inch gap from the mount located by the fire wall....all my current mounts are from a 96' Gsr that threw a rod and was then replaced with the B20 block/gsr head and now there is this motor mount issue....does anyone know of the proper mounts i should be useing for the swap (95' civic coup / B20b manuel)

all 94-up tegs (5-speed) have the same rear "k-bracket" this is the correct bracket you have. is this swap auto or 5 speed? all of the mounts from the teg will bolt the swap into all egs given 5 speed for 5 speed..

try rocking the engine, it MUST line up if you are using the correct mounts which seems you are.

Try to get it to reach the rubber on the subrframe

so what u guys are saying is that....all the mounts i am using are the right ones...hmm...this is verrrry strange, makes no sence at all....unless anyone else has more info...i guess i might have to try the REAR BOLT-UP technique first thing tomorrow... but eveyone that takes a lok at it is saying that we must have at least one of the brackets wrong...

I had a similar issue when i did my ls motor swap. It turned out that I had a 99-00 Si b16 mount and it won't work in an EG. Good luck!

it should line up unless the guy you got the "gsr" mounts from gave you a mount for some other vehical.......loosen most of the mounts a little and wiggle/rock the engine around a little it should line up as long as its the correct mount......
