no one makes mounts for a b20 in a 4th gen accord. thats a custom fab job.
... that boggles my mind why someone would swap a b20 in an accord.

oh **** you're talkin about the motor mount inserts, i thought you were talkin about the actual mounts. well i mean if you can find out where he got the mounts to put that motor in, there you go. you can only get the inserts for that specific mounting kit though, you cant use just any inserts. those mounts gotta be custom though i dont know anyone that makes motor mounts for that in an accord.

ok, i stand corrected. the b20b is what i was thinking of out of a CRV. the b20a is in fact an older generation prelude motor that should have fit in your accord fine. im sorry for all the confusion, just go and buy polyurethane mounts for your accord motor and they should go right in there. http://www.TASauto.com

Sell the B20A5. Why would you want to swap that motor in your accord first of all?

I thought the B series came in the older style ludes before 92. I didn't think those engines swapped over to the 90+ Accords with OEM mounts. Are you sure this isn't an 89 Accord?

thats what i was thinking, i knew that that B20 swapped into the older accords, but not the 90s and ups. Its a swap ive always been curious about though so good luck, you better hope buying someone elses half done work isn't a headache.

Oh, it will be. Especially if they are putting a B20 into a 90 Accord considering I don't think anyone has ever done that. Good luck.
