4 x 12mm bolts on the lower, drivers side of the motor, facing the rad.
Drop those.

Or, look at where the mount connects to the chassis, and take out those 2 x 12mm bolts.

Helms lists for a b16, & y5, y8 w/manual tranny

rear stiffener
front stiffener
a/c compressor bracket
p/s pump bracket
side mount engine bracket
alternator bracket

all other engines not included in the above mention have a different style stiffener in the front of the engine. this is from my 96-00 helms hope it helps

edit: if it's the eh3 in your sig, it should have five as stated above

I "third" this?!?

All along I thought taking out the original engine was the easiest part of any engine swap. The quickest I've seen it done is around two hours. I think you should get some help.

This makes me wonder if the fuel line, wiring harness, shift linkage, heater hoses, and other doo-dads are still hooked up too.



I'm not trying to dogpile on you or anything, but it seems like you kind of jumped into a swap not fully knowing what's going on yet.

We're here to help, but sometimes I guess some things seem so obvious to people that have been doing it for a long time that they cannot restrain themselves and go for the throat rather than really helping out.

Just an observation...
