I want to put an h22 in my eg hatch. Everything seems simple,but the installing and running the shifter cables and mounting the shifter itself. I want to know how does this all have to be installed and if there is any cutting involved and to what. If I ever want to put back a b series motor in my car how hard would that be? If it will be hard what can I do that will make it easy in case I don't like the h22 for some reason?

The HCP kit requires the tranny mount be cut on one of the sides, does this interfear with ever putting the b series motor back in. On an image I saw it looks like it interfearded with the original mounting hole for the b series tranny bracket. Does it?

How about place racing and hasport mount kit, do they require u to cut that mount bracket?

Also I have heard place racing has a shifter box to prevent any cutting for mounting the cables, will this work with any mount kit?

Please someone let me know what I can do?

 

the hcp mount kit does not require you to cut any mounts and bolts right in, as far as the cables go you have to cut like a 4x4 hole in the underside of the car like about straight down from the stereo and you mount the shifter right over the old shifter hole i will send you pics of newmans asap

auctually i had to cut my tranny mount a bit for the shifter box and i also had to cut the ring around the shiftlikage hole so that the new shift assmbly can sit flush. I guess you can fabricate somthing so the shifter assembly sits higher bit was easier to just do a bit more cutting.

the shifting cable goes all the way to the left auctually touching it still when you move the shifter to the left inside the car to shift to 1st or second
