Default h22 in eg engine rocking under deaccelration and low rpm driving

i know since of tight space in the front, theres no front mount at all. only 3 mounts holding the motor instead of normally 4 on preludes.

so every time i let off the gas it will rock flat foward, its starting to get annoying now since i have to drive through traffic everyday now more than before. it happens in 5th gear at low speed too. actually almost every gear.

its tight when accelrating. but deaccelration is the disadvantage.

is there a kit to stiffen it? or any other way around?

Isn't the HCP kit pretty new? I don't know what the durometer rating is on their mounts, but from your experience it seems that they're pretty soft if you're still experience engine movement. I would have probably gone with the Hasports in this situation. You could contact HCP and see if they make a harder set of mounts and see if you could return yours for a harder set.

you obviously did something wrong. Check the rear mount/brackets..... make sure the brackets are tight on the block and tranny. Even if the rear mounts was completely shot the motor shouldn't be moving that much.
