Nice. Those are weld only mounts right?
How low is your oil pan to the ground? Because I have an ef with the h2b kit and my motor sticks out the hood. But I bet yours hangs low to tha ground right?
Also did you have to cut your driver side rail at all? Any pics of the traction bar?

Just the passenger side requires welding. I haven't got the car off the jacks yet (need axles) so I don't know how low it's going to be. I will have to cut some webbing out of my hood or get an SiR style hood to get it to clear up top though.

I'll post more pics this weekend

**** I need a custom hood with a big *** scoop or cowl. And I need a custom made header because the placeracing mounts tilt the motor to the front. Is the rywire plug and play specifically for that swap or just an obd1?

It's basically a plug & play specifically for the swap. I did have to extend a couple wires & will need to add one for the knock sensor (don't know why they forgot that one).

I think my engine and header sit higher than the old D16 did with this kit.

Yeah, it's a hatch. I'll post some pics of the whole car (a beater) when it's done. This is going to be my little sleeper.

The fit wasn't too tight. The width of the engine bay (framerail to framerail) is 1 1/2" narrower than a 4th gen Prelude. I originally thought i'd have to place the tranny in the bay, drop the motor in, then attach them in the Bay (complete pain in the @!%) but was able to drop the entire engine/trans assembly in without any problems.
