Depending on what car you have. Im assuming its a 92-95 civic. The steel frame mount on the tranny side must be cut out and a 5 speed metal bracket must be welded in. Ek is a simple change of trans brackets that mount on the trannies.

No the stock metal bracket sits about 1 inch two high thus the reason your motor is crooked. Notice the bolt holes sit point up in direction. The 5 speed bracket is ALMOST 90 DEGREES TO THE FRAME. I hate to tell you but you must drop the trans,cut the mount off and weld in the new factory bracket.

Should work considering the chasis are the same. Call and double check before ordering. Id say its a go though.

Ive done about 20 auto to manual swaps. I know the old one will not work because
1:when you cut it off it is pretty haggard
2:there is no way to position the old haggard mount to line up for a proper fit. Your options are buy the Hasport mount or a factory weld on bracket.
