I don't see how those would disable the use of radius rods.
And they have a PN for 5th gens as well.
EDIT: the link you posted was for swapping H series motors into the 92-96 preludes, not for OEM replacements. The link above is for the OEM upgrades, which appear to be direct replacements for the stock mounts, as well as available for both the 4th and 5th generation preludes.

Any problems? Excessive vibration?
They don't seem to make a mount to replace the tranny mount. Any downsides to that?

If you look on enjo's site http://www.enjoracing.com/engine_mounts_oem.html and click on the part number for "honda prelude 92-96" and look under the "Includes" section at the bottom of the pop-up window, you will see that it comes with both the tranny mount and the rear tranny mount. Vibration is a bit more than normal but nothing bothersome. The most noticeable is right when you start the motor, it vibrates more in the initial cranking of the motor but after that, fine. No problems whatsoever.

The difference is that the swap mounts are made for engines going into cars they don't originally come in. example: h22 into a civic.
The oem replacement mounts are made of the same material and are the same mounts, they are just made to go in the vehicle that the motor originally came in.

Re: solid motor mounts found... kinda (jd3jdm)
but if you look at the swap mounts they have mounts to fit a h-series into a 92-96 prelude which it already came with. so wouldn't that be the same as the oem replacement?

Re: solid motor mounts found... kinda (flip1199)
Yeah, I've seen these advertised for a while, but no one seems to actually have them in stock, or is able to provide pictures of them. If they were actually available I would consider them....
Maybe someone can find a dealer that has them.

As far as I know, they would be the same damn thing. I guess they could consider it a motor swap that you took an f22 or h23 out of your 92-96 lude and replaced it with an h22. I'm sure that's what they mean, as dumb as it sounds. They are the same mounts.

^^ True you just have to decide whether or not they are a neccessary piece for your setup.
The energy suspension inserts are nice too. Matt knows about them. They really help alot.
