Ahh I had such a crappy weekend...i put in a freakin stock clutch on my car and took it for a test spin...i power shift the damn car and broke a piece of the tranny and off the block where the mounts go. You know the tranny has two screws for the rear bracket right...well i broke off the hole for one of the screws and the damn linkage fell to the floor because the tranny's weight shifted down pulling the linkage out of place..then on the drivers side mount the holes on the block for the mount screws were stripped and one whole just ripped apart like pieces of rock...what I did was put some longer screws there and on the rear bracket to hold it for now just to get to work...i wanted to know if there is anything i can do to fix that?...like can i take it to a special welder or something so they can reinforce the engine on the drivers side and on the rear?....i really don't want to take that block apart after all the work i did to it...by the way i have a b16 fully built for turbo but no turbo yet on a 94 civic coupe...any ideas?

 

bump for any suggestions?

 

take it in to a machine shop and have it welded up maybe?

Try calling an auto recycler (salvage yard) in your area and ask them where they get their collision (accident) damaged engines and transmissions repaired. The type of repair you are describing is fairly common on aluminum blocks and transmissions. You might also call your local Honda Dealer body shop and ask them the same question. You will probably have to remove it from the car to have it repaired properly. Good Luck.

 

yeah i guess i could call the salvage yards and see what happens...thanks for the help guys

 

Just wondering if the bolts that where used before come off a civic or bseries engine? The reason ask is because same thing happen to me on my driver side engine mount and my b18b was pulled out of a civic my bolt where stripped and short, just wondering if the actual b-series bolts r longer or if they r the same as
d-series.

 

actually the b series are longer because i was using the d series bolts which is why the damn thing did not hold and stripped...i found some b series bolts and they were longer and now it holds fine from that side...i guess i had to learn the hard way
