Default jdm b16a into a 93 del sol s

I'm about to be swapping this b16a sir2 out of my 99 civic and into my 93 del sol s. I've been reading around as to what i need to change to make everything go in right and i've found that i'll need new mounts and del sol vtec shift linkage. I've also seen here and there, but not everywhere, that i'll need new axles and a new distributor.

so my questions are
1. can i piece together some stock mounts to get this motor in without paying big bucks for hasport mounts?
2. do i need to get axles other than my ek b series axles?
3. do i need a diff. distributor?

I know these are probably common questions but i've been told different things about all of these and am not sure as to what is actually right

If you have the B16 in your Civic already then you don't need to buy anything else. The mounts from that motor will fit the motor in the Del Sol. You can use the B series axles you got. As for the distributor, I think you need an OBD1 B sereis distributor and distributor plug.

alright cool thanks for the help. As far as the distributor, it should be obd1 already because is an obd1 b16a. I have the obd2 to obd1 conversion harness in order to have the motor in my ek civic.

I got 1 more question.. would the B series shift linkage be the same as the D series shift linkage on a 99 civic? I am gonna drop the old D series del sol motor into my civic and since i have to by new shift linkage to drop my b16 del sol i'll have the old B series from my civic. If i could re-use it with the D series Sol motor it would be great, but i'll buy new linkage if I have to.
