Default integra type r hytech replica fitment issue??

ive heard that you will have problems installing the hytech replica header on a type r engine because it does not fit with factory Type R transmission (motor brace) but ive heard you can swap the transmission brace with a GSR/LS/B20...

with this still be a problem if the engine swap was in an ek and not a integra ... thanks... please help out i just wanna know what im getting myself into before i buy the product thank you everyone ... i really do apriciate it ..

I can speak from my own experience from installing my Hytech on my ITR. The Hytech header does not clear the ITR tranny brace, regardless of what chassis the motor is in. So if you have an ITR tranny with the brace you either have to 1) Run the GSR/LS Flywheel cover or 2) Cut the brace to allow clearance for the header.
