Motor Mount question?

[big4]

I just got a 90 SI Hatch with a B18A1 in it. I noticed that the back motor mount is broke off at the beam. How many mount should I be using for this engine swap? It only has three(left/right/rear). Stock EFs have four right?. The rear one is toast..see pic!

you only need 3...stock ef's have 4 but you will not be able to use the front..
did the bolts break that were holding the mount to the rear crossmember?

The cross beam is broke and the mount is still attached to the motor. I'll take better pics in a minute... Thanks guys for your reply.

Is this common in B18A1 swaps?

someone before me did try to weld it...from the looks of it.

 

[TurboMirage]

wow... i'd cut all of that out and weld in new thicker metal.

Is this a common problem?

Ive never seen that before, it looks like the stock rear mount welded to the rear crossmember, far from being the right way to do it.

Someone did try welding it before me owning it(looks that way). The rear mount is factory the r/L are aftermarket....all are ripped. I'm going all solid mounts. I got my work cut out for me......lol
