Sounds like the b18b1 came out of a obd2 car. Simply depin the ls dizzy and put the d series plugs on it. may have to cut and solder the two wires for the coil. (blue and the black and white one)

Do not depin the plugs. You have two other options that will work better. One is the easiest, but there is a cost. Rywire and a few other places sell a conversion plug that will adapt the OBD2 (LS) distributor to the Civic engine harness.
Option 2: With out cutting or spending any cash you can take the guts from the SOHC Distributor and put it into the LS distributor case. All of the internal parts are the same. The only issue is that the screws are a pain to get out and may strip.

My bad. Not sure if you just added the question about the mount or not or I just missed that skimming your post.
Like said above you need one off of a 94-01 Integra as well as the front lower trans mount (in front of the radiator) If you got the complete swap you should have got those mounts with it. If you are trying to retain A/C you will need the front lower engine mount/ A/C bracket from a Del Sol with the DOHC engine.
PM me if you need any other pointers.
