Product Details
Upgrade your 1994–2001 Acura Integra with the Innovative Mounts B40154 Billet Engine Mount Kit, specifically engineered for converting an automatic-equipped Integra to a hydraulic 5-speed manual transmission while retaining a compatible Honda B-Series or D-Series engine.
Designed for the Acura Integra DC/DB chassis, this performance mounting system replaces the original engine and transmission mounting arrangement with precision-engineered billet aluminum mounts and high-performance polyurethane bushings.
Unlike conventional replacement engine mounts, the B40154 is a dedicated automatic-to-manual conversion mount kit. Its application-specific design provides the proper mounting arrangement for installing a compatible hydraulic manual transmission into an Integra originally equipped with an automatic transmission.
Featuring CNC-machined billet aluminum construction, CAD/CAM engineering, stress-analyzed components, and Innovative Mounts' unique no-tear polyurethane bushings, the B40154 delivers improved drivetrain stability, reduced engine movement, and enhanced performance during acceleration and shifting.
Whether you're converting your daily-driven Integra to a manual transmission, upgrading a naturally aspirated B-Series build, or preparing a turbocharged performance project, the Innovative Mounts B40154 provides a dependable mounting foundation for your conversion.
Designed for 1994–2001 Acura Integra Automatic-to-Manual Conversions
The Innovative Mounts B40154 is engineered specifically for Acura Integra models originally equipped with an automatic transmission.
When converting these vehicles to a manual transmission, the factory automatic transmission mounting arrangement differs from the mounting configuration required for a hydraulic 5-speed transmission.
The B40154 addresses these mounting differences while supporting compatible B-Series and D-Series engine combinations.
Key advantages include:
Application-specific mounting for 1994–2001 Acura Integra chassis.
Designed for automatic-to-manual transmission conversions.
Compatible with supported Honda B-Series and D-Series engines.
Designed for hydraulic 5-speed manual transmissions.
Requires a 3-bolt driver-side engine post mount.
Precision-machined billet aluminum construction.
Performance polyurethane bushings for improved drivetrain stability.
Reduced excessive engine and transmission movement.
Improved throttle response and shifting consistency.
Multiple bushing hardness options for street and racing applications.
Precision-Machined Billet Aluminum Construction
The B40154 features billet aluminum mounting components engineered to provide strength, precise fitment, and dependable performance.
Innovative Mounts utilizes CAD/CAM design and stress analysis to develop mounting components capable of supporting performance-oriented drivetrain applications.
Billet construction provides a durable alternative to aging factory mounts while offering a distinctive appearance within the engine bay.
No-Tear Performance Polyurethane Bushings
Innovative Mounts incorporates its specialized no-tear polyurethane bushings to help reduce excessive drivetrain movement while maintaining vibration isolation appropriate for the selected bushing hardness.
Compared with worn factory rubber mounts, performance polyurethane bushings help maintain more consistent engine and transmission positioning during acceleration, deceleration, and shifting.
Benefits include:
Reduced engine rocking under acceleration.
Improved drivetrain stability.
Reduced mount deflection during gear changes.
Improved throttle response.
Reduced wheel hop in applicable driving conditions.
More consistent drivetrain positioning.
Increased durability for performance applications.
Required 3-Bolt Driver-Side Post Mount
The Innovative Mounts B40154 is specifically designed for applications using a 3-bolt driver-side engine post mount.
This is an essential fitment requirement.
The engine-side post mount must have the correct three-bolt mounting configuration for the B40154 to install properly.
If a replacement post mount is needed, Innovative Mounts offers:
Innovative Mounts B50150 – Billet 3-Bolt Driver-Side Post Mount
The B40154 is not intended for applications using the alternative 2-bolt driver-side post mount configuration.
