i bought a 95 h22 to swap into my 96 accord...i have everything i need, I even found the OBD2-OBD1 conversion harness i need. but im not sure about the mounts, ive read that i dont need a mount kit that i can just use my stock mounts, ive read one stock mount needs fabricated...is there anyone that had done this swap that can tell me if i need the mount kit or if i can just use the stock accord mounts????????????
THANKS

 

Try searching the forums for the answer.

 

i have looked and found a couple different things...just wondering if anyone here has done this swap...

 

you need to use a prelude driverside mount and it has to be ground down about 5mm in order to fit...easy to do with a grinder...the rest can either be accord or prelude, you choose...but you can't use one from an accord and another from a prelude, get what i'm saying...like, front mount can't be accord, rear mount prelude...won't work like that...

 

okay. now, i've had my swap for just about a year now, and i heard a nasty rumor that i could have reused my F-series driver's side motor mount. any truth to this?

and also, has anyone researched to see if we can find the part number for the SiR driver's side motor mount so we don't have to go about shaving the 1996 Prelude VTEC mount?

thanks for the help...im stoked that i dont have to buy a mount kit saves me a lot of money...

I have a prelude rear mount,and drivers side mount. Accord front and passenger side mount. I got the prelude rear bc my ex rear mount didnt have a urethane insert made for it. I know you cant use one of the prelude mounts it was eighther the pass or front.

 

But for sure you have to use the Prelude Drivers side mount and not the 97 accord one? And also did anyone doing this swap in a 97 accord have any problems wiring in the knock sensor?
