Default H22 into a 94 civic coupe.. Ebay engine mounts????

I know i will probably end up getting flamed for this...

Anyone ever purchase h22 civic swap mounts from ebay?

If so, do you have any pro's and cons about purchasing them again?

Durability, Engine stance, and product quality.

true.


If you had 2 sets of mounts... from different manufacturers. Both sets made with the same guage metal, same specs, and maybe even welded with the same type of welder.

What would make them any different? Other than the manufacturer stamping a name on them and bumping up the price...

I personally have not used them, but my one buddy got mounts to put a b series in a CRX, and he absolutely hates them.

This is something you don't want to cheap out on. Just think of all the possibilities should one of your mounts fail. It'll be hell.
