my EG with B18c swap in it, is hitting my hood anyone have this problem or remedy? it didnt do that with the B16 in it.

 

my friend had a GSR hatch and .. no it didnt hit the hood

 

u need mount inserts..ur mounts must be old..

 

you using the correct mounts?

 

do you have the torque mounts in? My lsvtec did that, I don't remember if I had those mounts in at the time though. It hit on the bottom left of my valve cover. I just hit the bottom of my hood with a hammer a little till i got those lower mounts in

 

i am using 4 out of the 5 mounts, that includes the AC bracket mount. i also have the silvers racing torqe dampner as well that mounts on the drivers side upper mount and hooks to the strut tower. my tranny and AC mount are filled with window weld polyeurethane, so they are real stiff, but when i re painted my car, i didnt use an OEM hood, so the webbing on the underside might be a little thicker.

 

well..my b18c use to hit my hood a little..but thats w. no ac mount or tranny front mount..after i out those on w. some poly inserts it doesnt hit anymore..

 

i have no problems with hitting the hood, maybe my mounts are old and slaughing

 

no hitting here

use all 5

what, are you not using the rear T mount? thats what controls forward and backward rotation of the engine.

 

i used at b-series mounts and i still rub the hood

 

My friends jdm b18c slaps the hood at idle...

 

I hit because i have a shitty VIS hood that doesnt fit b-series. But i got it to fit with Hoodlocks and a grip of cutting underneath the hood.

 

the only mount im not using is the tranny TORQUE mount.... i am even using A SILVERS TORQUE DAMPNER. it does the same **** on my friends EG b18c. i was just wondering how many have had this problem, or if it were just our cars

 

i have no problem, but another friend does.

 

i had my 95 civic coupe with my b18c and it didnt it then i put the engine in a 92 vx hatch and it doesnt hit in that either

 

on my old coupe w/ a b18c1 it hit the hood a little on the top valve cover where the ground bolt was.. wasnt that bad, i dont think i have the tourqe mounts in there either.. but it doesnt hit on my new car

 

buddy of mines has a gsr in his ej, the driver side mount broke and just about killed his hood. he got the hasport mount and everything is fine now

 

No problems with my EG with b18c. I used the B series tranny mount
