Who has a HCP bseries into EF mount kit? How do you guys like it? DOes it come with both shift linkages and a rear mount braket(metal thing that connects motor to rubber mount)? HOw does it reatil for anyways? Will it still work with the place racing x-member?

 

Should work with the place front member. All I ever use is the HCP kit. For the price....They are awesome. Hasport is a little nicer, but for like 200 more dollars....not that nicer. It comes with both shift linkages. A little weird to adjust, but work awesome once you understand it. It doesnt come with the rear "L" bracket, but that is just a 90-93 teggie bracket that you can get for like 30 bucks. I had the HCP kit with B18C in my EF hatch with the JAckson charger....no problems......Now I am running the HCP kit still with the B18C, but it is turbo now. I can get the kits for 415 +shipping. ...Oh yeah....Full Eurathane mounts..All of them!! Located in Northern Cali.

Love it. The shift linkage is tricky like BlownHatch said. I still don't think I have it right....

 

I've put two in and like the quality of them both. Very nice kits. I recommend them, especially for the price, and that linkage is tricky, takes a little while to get it adjusted properly.

 

do you happen to know anything about the EG H22 mount kit that HCP makes??? any good?? thanks

 

I have used the same mount kit for 2 different engines in my CRX, and i have no complaints. Engine sits perfectly straight, linkage shifts nice, and clears the hood (i've used a B18a and B16a).

does HCP have a site? Never mind, I found it.

one more thing though, you know how HCp still uses the front tranny mount? I was going to buy a 92+ civic fluidyne radiator and replace with the stock crx one for turbo duty...will I still be able to do that? Or will the CRX fluidyne radiator fit with a larger t04e compressor housing? the housing sits on the driver's side BTW...

Blown90hatch, How's your motor set up like? are you using a smaller radiator or the long ne like the stock CRX cores?

does any one of you happen to have your crx/civic raditator for sale?

 

The front mount connects to the crossmember, so it won't really effect your radiator choices... even if you do go turbo (look at the HCP CRX that is turbo B18B with plenty of clearance.... I have picts of it that I took somewhere on my website).

As for the EG kit, it looks and works out great... very similar to the engine position as HASport's kit but you don't have to hack off the passenger side frame rail mount... instead you use it with the HCP kit. Also, the EG and EK kits have the option of coming with a front brace, so that you can use the front mount.... which I would advise doing so because I've already heard of people who didn't run the front mount (on HCP and on HASport's kits) and the one of the other mounts tore out because of all that torque by the large engine.... of course HCP has lifetime warranties for something like that. Eitherway, that's what I'll be using on my EG here in the next week or so.... would've already gone it but other priorities always come up first.

 

What Newman is talking about on the EK and EG, is with a H22 swap. The HCP kits does offer a front cross member option that is top notch.

Slow....I am running a 60-1 Turbonetics turbo in my setup. It is bigger than a T04E. I test fitted a T03/T04E turbo on my B18C with a revhard manifold and it hit the radiator. I switched to the Fluidine radiator for an EG. I am going to hack off the radiator support and fabricate one with the EG mounts on it. The stock front cross member will still work and bolt up to the motor after that. The only problem, you need to worry about is hitting the radiator. The front cross member is cool.

thanks blown90

 

the hcp kit comes with 4 mounts. whats the front mount do? if i drop in a b motor, is there any important use for it? theres a gb for hcp 3 mounts + shift linkage for $405.

 

Front mount is good because it's added security from keeping the motor from moving around. Sure you can get by with 3 mounts (look at HASport) but I like the added security of the front mount, plus it helps on launching since it connects to the crossmember. As for the GB for the HCP mounts (3 mounts and adj linkage for $405), well I've been selling all 4 mounts with adj. linkage for $375 shipped for a few years now (I work with HCP and the owner and I are good friends) so I support and push their product.... hell, I'm using their kit again, this time the EG-22 mount kit for my Civic

 

newman, on the h22a into a civic, what extras do you have to wire in? and do the h22a's run a dual stage intake, like the gsr's? my friend just baught a mount kit from you off the h-a.net baord i beleive and were just having a few problems on wiring this 95 motor into his 97 hatch.

 

everything should just be close to a gsr motor. Preludes do have secondary runners. Plus, I'm not sure if the GSR has an EGR, but the prelude does. Maybe if you use a GSR ECU, you can get rid of the EGR.

Try this, wire up the vtec and knock wires as a b-series vtec motor would be hooked up, then get an ECU jumper and run a OBD1 GSR ECU(p72)

 

In my CRX I am running a T04E housing with the stock radiator. I used a DRAG manifold instead of a Rev-Hard for clearance. The housing sits about 1" from the radiator plenty of room with the HCP mounts. I would have liked to get a Rev-hard manifold though....
