Euro-R IM fitment issues in EG/DC chassis
I currently have an EG w/ a mildly built H23VTEC motor.... with a Euro-R IM, of course... and i'm using Avid Racing mounts (which i hate!!)
With the purchase of a house and the fact that i don't want to be in debt forever, i've decided to take a break from racing for at least the next year.... maybe two, in order to pay down some debt...
My problem/question is this....
I'm considering making this motor a little more "street friendly" so i can put it in my DC Integra. Now, when i switched over to a Euro-R IM there were some clearance issues at the firewall. I ended up having to move my brake lines down and massaging my firewall a little bit to create some decent clearance from the firewall...
So, my questions is..... is this firewall clearance issue common with ppl who have an H-series w/ Euro-R IM in an EG/DC chassis? Is the problem my motor mounts? If so, which mounts have ppl used and had decent clearance from the firewall/brake lines?
I really don't want to have to move the brake lines or "massage" the firewall in my Integra if i can help it....
