Default LS VTEC swap in 96 HX

I have a 96 civic HX and im getting the swap out of a 93 hatch. will my motor mounts work for that motor, or the ones off the hatch cuz he's got Hasport mounts. I heard that the back mount might need to have something different but I cant figure it out. Any help on this would be appreciated. Thanks!!

You'll need the 99-2000 si rear mount. Use the rest of the 96's mounts.

I didn't see that you wanted to use the hasports mounts, and no you can't use the hasport mounts from the eg.

And on the not needing the drivers bracket, I needed one when i swapped a gsr into my car (98 civic) so idk. The part numbers on the ls side bracket and gsr is identical. Which is a 2 bolt bracket and the bolts coming out of it are really close. The si is a 3 bolt with the bolts coming out is wider.

You DO need the driverside black cast iron bracked, mount whatever you want to call it. It has to be from a 99-00 civic Si along with the rear T bracket that you have to use.
