Sounds like you got the GEN B16a motor package from the 88-91 model. These come with the cable gearbox (different housing to the later generation). It will require heaps of work to get it running in an EG.
You should of gotten the B16a pacakge from either the EG6, CRX (94 and above) or Ek4 (you need to change a few things). And no, dont need aftermarket mount to fit into the EG

Hope you get it sorted out
Your right man I needed the hydrolic one! all sorted now tho
Picked up one of those wale penis's today, just one of those mock up ones if im right! Didnt relise how big they are haha now the name makes sense lol!
ohhhwelll after being stuffed around for long enuf i went down and spoke to the owner at hondaspares and told him what was going on...he hasnt got any other b16a motors so im gettin my money back so now im on the hunt for another motor :S anyone no of any forsale???
You can't make that swap. If you swap an engine it MUST be the same age or newer than your car. Since you're driving an EG, which weren't made before 1992, you'll need a newer engine unless you use a different bottom-end like I mentioned earlier.
Otherwise, just check the Parts for Sale section - there's always a couple going around. Or make a Want to Buy thread in that section.
It's a bit of a pity because the original B16A is often considered to be the strongest, but because it's so old it's not easy/legal to get it swapped into newer cars.
So use a B16A2 or if you can get a cheap one (like Beeza's) get a B18C2.
