Hey. Kinda new to this forum but I've noticed that there are some damn knowledgable guys on here. My question now is that I have finished assembling my h22a motor to go into my crx. I am using an m2s4 trans and inovative mounts. Will I need to hammer the body to make room for my crank pulley? Or, can I simply cut my pulley to a single pulley and have it fit? Thanks guys. I expect to have this hogg in this week.

 

maybe this might help...!!!

I am running hasport mounts and a underdrive that I called and had them machine the ps section off. I think it was another 50 bucks for it. I didn't have to clearance it at all.

 

Hmm. Well I have measured and it looks like the motor will fit with no trouble. I have the trans in the car now so I could line up my shifter cables. I have roughly 20.5" from the input shaft to the body of the car. I am a machinist so I will just chop the pulley if I have to. Anyone ever have balance issues with an oem pulley that has been remachined?

 

if you get an f20b pulley they have a signal drive on them.

You shouldn't have to beat on the driver side frame rail but then again I am referring to our Motor Mount Kit...

Yes the alternator only crank pulley is needed... simply have a machine shop cut the PS off the crank pulley with a lathe and have them balance it afterwards. Or like mentioned above purchase the F20B/H23A Vtec/Euro R crank pulley from H motors online.

F/H motors/Trans are big motors specially in the smaller EF chassis... about 1/2" or less to spare on each side.

 

ive only done b20, and ls swaps in the ef chassis. but just to say, this product they make for this swap is great, its good to see companies out there meeting the buyers needs and making our swaps easier and less hassle.

 

I run lathes almost every day. I am a machinist. I'm sure it will fit once I cut the pulley. The IM mount kit puts the edge of my trans maybe a 1/4 inch off the passenger side frame rail.... However. I think I may go for the f20b pulley for the fact that it will allready be balanced from the get go. I've cut a few pulleys for friends and they've always worked. My friends b18a swap needed no pounding on the rail for his pulley once I made it a single drive. I'm looking to pick up a full f20b in the next year or so. Maybe sooner if bonuses allow at my work haha. Thanks guys. Any other info is appreciated, just throw it up
