buy mounts, dent the drivers side frame rail for the altinator pulley, and i think you have to cut the tranny mount off the front crossmember, im not positive on the tranny mount, but i'll let you know on monday when mine goes in

Get a motor mount kit, if its a good kit you don't need to dent the inner fender/frame rail... may have to remove the front tranny mount but not the one on the x member

youre gonna wish you bought a 90-91, the 92 is obd I, so you'll have to convert the car to obd I. unless you want to use a crx si extended harness, and you'll also have to convert the car to MPFI instead of DPFI.
edit-

he will have to dent in the driver's side framerail even with a hasport kit. its to clear the alternator pulley. be sure of stuff before you post misinformation. denting in the framerail is even in the hasport directions.

don't mind me, i'm a blind retard..........
edit- nevermind, i remember why i thought he would have to do an MPFI conversion. i thought the 88-89 HFs were DPFI and the 90-91 HFs were MPFI. so i guess i'm wrong about this? Is it the DX i'm thinking about?
