Default h23 manual tensioner install into swapped EK

Anybody done this without pulling the engine? This is an h22 in a '97 civic.

Yep. The bottom cover is a pain coming off. But when you put it back on, the bolt that give you trouble taking it off, will be gone.

Safe to assume that it applies to all mount kits?

I did it with HCP mounts, Hasport is has more space. The hardest part is getting everything off. when the manual tensioner is installed, there is less parts and less "long" parts that stick out.

I take the alt, PS and A/c (if it has it) out of the way. It frees up space so it makes it a lot easier.

I dunno about enjo, and other copy mounts. If you brought those mounts, you were asking for trouble in the first place. Not saying it is not possible, but it may be harder.
