Explicit Speed Performance H22A mounts - good or bad?
I may be able to get an H22A swap pretty cheap. So the thought of doing another swap has been with me for the last week or two. I noticed in a couple of threads here that Explicit Speed Performance makes a mount kit for H22A swaps. And at only $449, it is a good $300 cheaper than the Hasport kit for the same swap. Now the mounts are not billet aluminum. But if they work, they work (and steel is actually better in many ways). Also, the fact that the weld-in passenger side mount does not have a locator bolt hole like the Hasport kit is a DEFINITE negative. But this is worthwhile dealing with for $300 less, provided the rest of the kit is good. Is anyone using this kit? Or has anyone heard anything good or bad about this kit?

What would be preferable to a reference mark is a bolt hole. The transmission mount in the Hasport kit has a bolt hole that bolts up to one of the 8mm battery tray bolts. You simply bolt the mount to the frame rail and weld it in. This would be MOST helpful since it would take out all the trouble of having to locate the engine in the bay, make marks, pull the engine out, and then weld. Someone such as myself who doesn't have a welder or welding experience could simply bolt the mount in, remove the paint around it, and call a mobile welder to weld it in. I could then just drop the drivetrain right in as if it was a B-series (or something close to that).

One thing I do like about a company such as hasport is the way a dude like Brian G will address all points made espcially if they are valid
