I am in the middle of an ls swap with a gsr hydro tranny into my 92 hatch. I bought innovative mounts for a 92-95 with hydro b series swap. I just got the mounts bolted up and it is sitting the same way as the picture above.(not my car my camera recently broke) I did a VIN # check and my car has always been a manual car. Was i sent an automatic passenger side mount? I can not understand why it is sitting so crooked.

i feel like the 92-95 auto to manual mount would make the engine sit right but it doesn't make sense.

 

come on 65 views and no one can help me. I am completely stumped and need this car for school in a week.

 

was your car an Auto and you converted it to stick?

 

no i did a VIN check and it has always been stick. I thought this was the case untill the the VIN# came back as it being a manual car.

 

if they sent you and auto mount for the eg its wrong for the pass. side...the 2 cars auto and manual have diff. body mount locations.. you need to get the manual mount for the manual car...i am 100 percent on this i have done a few auto to manual conversions on eg's and have to get the special auto conversion mount for the 5 speed in a manual car

 

thank you for your help. I took the passenger side mount off and it has b10120 stamped on the bottom. Is there any way to verify if this is the manual or automatic mount?

 

Thats a 5 speed mount. Do your mount look the same as the ones on their website?

 

thats not an eg in that picture......thats a da
maybe thats the problem

 

....and if you have eg mounts in a da; it makes perfect sense why it sits like that. the oem mount bracket is lower on an eg than a da.

 

yes the mounts look similar to the ones on the website. DAneronimo in my first post i stated this was not my car and i could not take pictures of my car b/c my camera broke. but this engine is sitting in the same position as the LS in my car.

 

You either have the wrong mounts, did something wrong or have the wrong postmount or rear bracket. I have installed many of these mounts and for sure its not the mounts. Try calling Innovative or whoever you got the mounts from and and see if the can help you out.

 

how can i verify all these mounts? I have been looking at pictures and the mounts look correct. How can i verify the rear tranny T bracket and the driver side two post mount?

 

the dirvers side 2 post and 3 post mounts are the same mounts just the attachment to the block is different one has 3 bolts where the mount bolts on and the other has 2...the T bracket on the back for the block for the earlier integras is smaller that the newer 94-01 one that you will use for the swap...it wouldnt come close the lining up even with the cable tranny in a eg when doing the cable to hydro swap you still have to use the newer hydro t bracket in a eg

 

thank you for all the help. I figured out the problem. The driver side mount bracket must be from an automatic car because it was to long causing the engine to sit low on that side. thanks again

 

thats what i thought no problem man

 

no wait the driver side is the same for both cars its the passanger side that is the wrong mount

 

no the engine mounts are correct but the two post mount on the drivers side was to long causing the engine to sit low on that side. The one from a 99-00 civic si is shorter making the engine sit higher.
