h swap 6th gen driver side mount??
Could some one explain to me in depth on how to do this??? I've looked at a couple pictures in a couple write ups... but I need like where you drill or whatever... cause If I use the accord mount I can only get 2 holes to line up the one to the chassis and one hole on the right side hole on the h... if I drill a hole out for the left hole then that would just make an oval with the middle hole on the h... what do I do???
I simply notched the third hole in the mount and then bolted it up.
Ive done two 6th gens this way and they've been holding up fine since '03.

hey slowpoke we did it a different way and it worked great, what i did was take the h22 engine bracket and the accord mount bracket, line up the rear hole and tighten it down finger tight, measure the gap between the upper and lower brackets where the front accord bolt hole is, then take a piece of 1.25" diameter aluminum bar stock and bore a hole into the center that is just large enough for a 14mm head bolt(m10x1.25mm thread pitch) to pass through it, turn the o.d. down on a lathe so that it is .005" larger than the front bolt hole on the accord mount bracket, then make it long enough to pass through the accord upper bracket and leave a section on the end of it that is 1" diameter and is the thickness of your gap measurment between the two brackets, then cut it off and press this finished piece into the accord mount bracket front bolt hole from the bottom so that that 1" dia section will fill the gap between the two brackets. Then once the motor is in bolt it on and line it up with the mount, this will allow you to find your spot to drill through the h22 eng bracket, use a letter S drill, i couldn't tell you exactly what size it is but its some odd decimal sized drill bit! it allows you to have an optimal thread pitch when you tap the hole. tap it out m10x1.25 and viola your done, throw a 14mm head honda bolt in and tighten it down.
