I'll also need a prelude driver's side engine mount.

My folks live in Warner-Tropolis-hell... in Statams Landing.

the only issues that i know of is you will have to get a header modified and move around a couple of wires. other than that it drops right in. i also used my accord pump on my H but i don't remember which bracket i used. if need be, i can always drive my accord up there and use it for reference

Hey thanks for the offer! I am told it is that easy...

I am looking for the 97+ p/s pump bracket right now, and trying to decide if I want the hasport mount kit (350) or just a prelude mount for the front left side (100-150).

I have a DC sports ss header ready for a good chopping to put a 2.5 collector on it. I'll need a new cat back anyway so that will all get massaged with a welding gun for a custom fit...

i think i picked up the prelude mount for $90 at pep boys. i am trying to get a guy in warner robins to come off of a dc sports header that has already been modified but he won't get back to me. i offered to trade him a hondata s200 since it won't work on my auto. my header is crushed (not completely) in from when i had it slammed. i raised it up to put the lip kit on and now i want a new header

why not just mod the one you have? any good welder can do it i am sure.

because it was a cheap flat black header to get it started. i wanted to eventually upgrad to a dc sports one anyway.

ah i see...

I found the p/s bracket for 75 on majestic honda.

the motor mounts are 78-130 at autozone... and I am thinking I might just have to get the cheep one right now and buy the hasport kit later... damn that make no sense I should buy the whole kit and put it in now while i have the motor pulled.

i don't use mine for anything other than daily driving and a little fun every now and then so there was no reason for me to upgrade the mounts.

ya i hear you on that, but my accord mounts are as old as the car. I am amazed that the OEM mounts have held up this long (and expecting them to fail soon).

Ya I should really get a new set... you have convinced me.

i don't know if the hasport is worth it though. my buddy bought a set of axles for the h22 swap into his civic and he had problems with them and then had problems getting them to correct the situation

Funny I get so much business from just throwing my cards out around town...

My girlfriend has a PT cruiser... I refuse to change the oil in it in my garage so she has to take it to the quick change for new juice.

It's one of the black and white ones. I used to work there from August of 07 till December of 07 (had to quit when I couldn't walk for 2+ weeks after my wreck) so I drop by from time to time still.

I'm working with my uncle whenever, and doing some yards on the side. Not having a full time job is killing me, but I've got enough yards to cover most everything.

Hey, atleast your doing something you enjoy.

We are having another SORCS at Rockcrusher on 7/12, you might could talk to Eddie about taking pictures there, TB Sports used to get a ton of business by selling his pics he took during them, now no one covers them.

That would be cool! I'll have to look in to that (and get a fast long lens for the job). I'll have to schedule my weekend around it.
