the one I bought has AT on the insert while mine has MT. Also anyone have a recomendation on how to get one of the motor mount bolts out of the motor? I snapped the head.
The mounts are different.
Maybe someone can help me with my snapped bolt.

are you talking about the front engine mount or the tranny side engine mount? I'm guessing you're referring to the 5th gen preludes. If you're talking about the front engine mount...they are the same. If you're talking about the stoppers, they may be different.

They are different. The AT's compund is thinner and its offset a little to the left, they are also has 2 diff P/N's.

the front mount may appear to be different, but will not be....why would honda move the motor's location between automatic and manual models....
your pics are so huge and close up its hard to get the big picture, but ill try my best here....
i think it just ends up being the same, maybe the bolt holes are offset because the metal is the opposite offset, and net the same position...are you very sure that both of those are from a 5g prelude??

Resized.
Im positive they are both out of 5th gens as I saw the car the AT mount came out of. The mount will bolt up but it will be offset to the pass side so the rubber stopper would be at an angle if I mounted it.

you could fix that mount with some polyurethane caulking. its not as jank as it sounds and works better than a mount with inserts (which are also polyurethane)
easiest way to get that bolt out would be to drill a hole in the center of it and get one of those left handed extractor bits and turn it out with that.

the second picture of the left engine mount looks as if it's been physically reshaped. did the car it came off of get in an accident?
