I thought so, but yet again I have never read, heard, or saw anyone that previously had an h22 and then swap it out for a B or D series engine. So...

NorthernXposure

you have to do some trimming on the passenger mount with the HCP kit.. at least i did with mine anyway.. i wouldnt really consider it as a "reversable" kit because you would still have to weld to get you d or b series motor mounts to fit back in...

well if you have to shave the HCp.. then it might of been the hasport kit that you can just reverse

NorthernXposure

has sport requires you to remove the whole mount off the passenger side

I never had to shave my HCP ek-22 mount kit.

Yeah, the amount that you have to shave off the mount to make it not grind 5th and reverse makes the mount useless.

I think that it is only for EG.

both kits are reversable with welding..... however the HCP kit would be easier to reverse instead of welding in the entire mount back in(HASport)you just to weld in the piece of mount you cut out with the HCP.

That is what's nice about the EK engine bay... no cutting or welding needed as all of the 96-00 Civic engine bay layouts are the same (even auto & 5-spd cars.... not like the EG where the pass framerail mount is different). So on the EK, you bolt on a plate to the framerail, and that is what has the arms extending out to hold the transmission mount onto.

hmmm im still sceptical.... i guess i just have to call each company and see how each works out

vtecjag

yo i have the hcp kit and you have to cut or grind the transmission side mount to make clearance so you couldnt change it back to any other swap....

What model civic do you have? Like people stated in a EG its not a direct bolt in the mounts. Unlike the ek.

vtecjag

i have an eg6, and loving every minute of it..

I'll have to take a picture tomorrow on a spare clip that we have that was originally used for test fitments with HCP's mount kit. There's a small piece welded back onto the frame bracket, so minimul modification/welding is needed to put a stock B/D-series motor back, but it should show what is needed to be done to the frame mount.
