Hey ppl, I've been asking around for a while now, and it seems that no one can really answer my question exactly. Am I the only person to attempt this kind of swap? Probably not. So how come no one can tell me exactly which mounts/brackets to use in order to get this engine and tranny to hold in the engine bay of a '00 Civic Si? I do NOT have the b16 or any mounts from it. What I do have is the GSR engine + tranny, and all the engine mounts/bracket on it (all 5). So now, what mount/bracket combination can I use to get this swap to go in? Do I really need all 5 b16a2 mounts, or can I mix and match (maybe some of them are interchangeable or same).

Now, I've seen many ppl get confused when I'm asking about mounts/brackets. What I mean is the mounts/bracket that are ON the engine and tranny. I'm not asking about the mounts/brackets that are IN the engine bay itself. BUT, if I need to change those as well then I'll do whatever it takes.

I don't have another buddy who has 99-00 Si to compare the engine bays and their mounts with my GSR, so that's why I need your help guys. I mean who else if not this crowd, right? So pls, help me out to get this swap done, really need to get this car back on the road, where it belongs. Thanks and hopefully we'll get this straightened out once and for all.

 

simple answer...all b series motors use the same mounts

and yay this swap is done alot..hope that helps

 

Well, that is not entirelly true, see I wouldn't be here asking for help is that was like that . I know for sure that the driver side mount is not the same, it's rotated 90 degrees. The other ones I can't see to tell if they are different + I don't have a b16a2 engine to compare to the teg's bay.

 

wrong, though some are interchangable. do some research before making a a statement about something you dont know about.

if you want to put the b18c1 in your civic, you can use the stock passenger and driver side mount from the 6th gen civic. the rear tranny mount you'll need the one from the 99-00 si

 

ok let me rephrase....any aftermarket urethane mounts are for ALL b series motors...that good enough for ya...and personally if you ogt the motor out go ahead and AT LEAST put in inserts but id put in urethane mounts personally..takes out the guessing and much better mounts
