do you still need a special engine mount like HAS or place racing to install a B16 on a 90 Civic Hatch if you have a JDM front conversion?..such as hood, fender, lights, and bumper?

 

Well, the engine mounts are still going to be USDM units, so you're going to need the mounts to swap in the engine... correct? As for hood clearance - I think the main difference between USDM and JDM is that the USDM imitations (HASport, Place, etc) push the motor closer to the firewall, so I don't think it'll be a problem.

 

You are still going to need the mounts....If you are going turbo...get the HCP kit...comes with 4 mounts. Will clear the hood...ecspecially if you have the SiR hood.

hcp is a good kit with the 4 mounts...better engine stability...hcp engineering also sells a modified shift linkage for the b16a1 swap

 

I get the 1st gen B16a swaps for 1100 and I get the HCP kit with adjustable shift linkage for 400 +shipping
