Exclamation Problem with b18b swap!!!! Need inputb

I just bought a 89 hatch SI with a swap B18b. the front motor mount had to be installed. I tried to insltall the mount but the motor doesnt line up. the motor is about 1 1/2 inches to the left of the mount brackets. i tried to move the motor over but the altenator is hithing the wall. This is a common swap and it should line up. can anyone give me any sugestions. please
also does any one know were i can get relatively cheap parts for the car.
thanks
