what mounts do you have to use for a ls swap in a ef? can you use stock b16 mounts or do i have to get hasport mounts or something..

 

hasport

 

Hasport,Place Racing,Arizona Race machine,etc...

Or you can make some mounts yourself if you have the skill..

 

is that a must?it wold be worth it to spend teh extra 300 buks that you wold on mmounts and just get a b16 i wold think..

But then when you get the b16 you would still have to get mounts and now you have to wire up vtec and get something to control it with..
Plus the b16 is only a 1.6 and is torqueless

That wont work...I think we all wish it was that simple..
Any motor besides a d-series will require custom mounts to get it into the usdm ed/ee chassis..

And you know what..Alot of people don't have the time or patience to sit there with a chunk of metal and make it into a mount,,..So you have retailers that make it simple for us..With there mount kits the motor sits in the correct position and you get a warranty..and you know it works because so many people have used the product and told their story..
