few quick questions
whats up guys, i just ordred a b16 long block through h-motors today. I am being charged 300 dollars for shipping (to wisconsin), dose that not seem a little excessive? i guess ill be paying it either way, but it seemed a little high to me.
also, i have searched, and pretty much verified what i thought to be the correct answer to this question, but can you use oem d series mounts when swapping a b-series into a eg hatch (cx)? i didnt think you could, but my buddy swears to me you can, and that he did on his gsr hatch.
and one final question, for wich i did search, how much weight can you save gutting a cx hatch? i am contimplating it, but am thinking i wouldnt save much weight. i remember a thread from a year ago or so where some guy gutted it, and weighed everything, and took pictures of the whole ordeal, but i cant find it if someone has a link to this question, or any of the questions i asked please post it. thanks

Re: few quick questions (NathanielH)
to your question no d series mount will fit.. what he probably did was he had bought the bseries motor,, n it had came with mounts he probably think he was using sohc mounts.......correct me if i'm wrong... b series mounts r stronger ne ways y would u even try to use d series mounts.....

Re: few quick questions (sil916)
it could be the case. He took the motor out of his integra, and put it in his civic, and i asked him if he was sure he hadent used some of the mounts off the teg, and he said no. but who knows. i would only use the d series mounts because i want to get my motor in asap, and then eventually worry about getting better mounts.
