i got a race shell, caged, traction bars etc.... im doin a h23 turbo, will the motor still drop in with the hcp mount kit and not hit the traction bars? i hope i dont have to take em out. anyone have a similar set up?

 

probably will have to custom make them. Its not hard one you see the basic design of them.

 

If the front end of the car is still factory and the traction bars are not custom then you should be fine. My budy has a h22 in a eg with competition traction bars and it fits no problems.

Me too.........shouldn't be a problem. Just wondering, does that mount kit use a front engine mount? If so, you will have a problem and probably have to get custom ones made

 

its the hcp kit, no front one. 2 sides and rear as far as i know. and the traction bars are z10.

 

shouldn't be a problem

 

talked to the guys at z10 they said it will HIT but they said in about 2 months they are comin out with a special oil pan that will let it clear. ~Jay

 

i have a h22 turbo in my street car and im using the morroso competion engineering ones and i know they fit so im sticking with those even thought they arent the best like jimfab i would to have the jimfabs but not going to chance 300 bucks and not fit the oilpan does hang low and come close to the drivers bar on the traction bar

 

Here you go and yes i no they are on backwards that since been fixed.

 

so mounted the right way they dont hit the oil pan

 

well i guess the z10 do hit and those others dont. so i just gotta wait it out till the z10 oil pan is availible. ~

Yea it hits the oil pan a little but nothing like using a rubber mallet to make a little ding in the pan to stop rubbing.

 

92h22a,,, what mount kit are you using??? those axles are hella tweaked, maybe its becuase the car is in the air and there is no load on it,, but damn. I plan on using the HCP kit, from what ive researched, that kit places the engine the furthest back,,, the further back,, the straighter the axles!

 

Looks like the place racing kit.

Ouch, I broke like 5 axles with that kit just barely lauching the car. Hit Norris up, he's got a sweet mount kit that puts the engine where it needs to be!!

I have had no problems until Oct 5, in phoenix firebird (IDRC) the passenger side axle didn't break but came out of the tranny. This is due to the C-clip that holds the axle in was not used due to the axle if it broke we could pull the broke axle out faster. But I have ran the car on the street as a everyday driver and went to the track at least 5 times with about 30 passes under the belt and no problems, time for longer axle.

 

so,,, what mount kit were you using?? place? or HCP? just wanna clarify that. thanks!

 

looks like place racing to me

 

now i see the yellow powder coated trans mount.
