Proper Mounts

[karizmah]

o.k. i want to be sure i've done my homework properly. I want to know if i will be getting the proper mounts to do this swap. I dont want to run into any stupid mistakes.

B18C into a 2000 ex (ek chassis)

1- The tranny mount from an 99-00 si(or 93 del sol)
Part #50827-S04-N10

2-The drivers side upper mount for a b series?
Part #11910-P30-000

3-The A/C mount from a 99-00 si
Part #38930-P54-000

is this correct?
I'm not sure about the upper.
And also which mounts do i use off the donor. will it just be the one on the gearbox?
I dont think i use any of the d-series mounts.

are you talking about mounts or brackets? there are two parts to connecting the motor to the frame.

You keep saying mounts and i say this everytime.. some people will tell you otherwise but from my personal expereience. I have had stock mounts in my car. they ripped apart (very literally in like a month) i have the torque dented hood to prove it. Buy after market mounts i have place racing and i love them.

I guess i'm talking about the brackets. correct me if i'm wrong the mount part is actully bolted onto the engine itself.
I wasn't planning on getting huge power out of the motor. you still don't think the oem brachets would be fine?

OK let me help you out. The bracket bolts to the block / tranny the mount bolts to the frame of the car.

Tranny Bracket: Any B-series
Upper tranny bracket: Stock
Rear (T) Bracket: 99-00 SI
Driver side Bracket:99-00SI
AC Bracket: DOHC Del-SOL

As for the mounts you can use your stock ones or go with aftermarket, IF you stock ones aren't in good shape go wioth aftermarket.

Ahhhhh, so for the mounts would still use off my car and what i'm buying is the brackets. Makes sense. I suppose then i could go buy a set of urathane inserts for my car (EX) and it would work right.

So i use the stock upper bracket (on the b18c)
Are there actually two tranny brackets?
it's a bit confusing (noob)

The drivers side and a/c i know.

god damn i wish i still had the pictures of the mounts i had after a little under a month of normal driving (they were in perfect shape) Save yourself a headache my friend please take this advice.. suck it up and buy after market mounts.

No you use your stock civic one. And yes there are two tranyy mounting locations. One right on top and one thats to the left of the slave cyl.

I guess if you have the extra $400 it is a better safe then sorry method.

[karizmah]

is there a specific mount kit sold for this swap?

or would i just be needing to buy a 99-00 civic ex one
