no not even close, the only thing that fits the 3rd generation are the A series. there's a JDM only B series that fits this car, but you need specific mounts. you'll find all this out when you search. :)

What I mean is the B series motors that people outside of older Preludes and Accords are referring to when they say "B series." This includes your B16, B18, B20, CRVTEC, LSVTEC, and so on. The B20A that we often refer to here is a direct swap into our cars, requiring no swap mounts.

By the way, this is something you're going to have to buy brand new. Swap mounts are as rare as hen's teeth, and only a few sets exist on the boards, and they're all being used. Go directly through Innovative for them.

I have no idea personally. I'd give Innovative a call and ask them.
