All b series engines have the exact same mounting holes and the transmissions are the same, excluding cable transmissions. All you need for this swap is a 99-00 si rear mount. If you want it to be really stiff (recomended) get the torque mounts too. Also get the mount inserts while you are at it, they are cheap and will really help you.

false. the rear mount and the 99-00 si drivers side mount is needed. the teg one won't work.

ALL of this is covered in our 6th gen swap guide in the Swap Articles forum.

torque mounts are over-rated IMO, but are good to have if you are using the stock mounts.

Im not trying to be a smart ass but there isnt a JDM B16a2. There is a JDM B16 Sir ll. Thats probably what you meant. JDM motors do not have numbers after the "a" or whatever letter is there.
