Default K20A ground clearance. (Search didn't do it)

I'd especially like to hear from people with the K20A in an EH platform.
The reason?


We're building a NEW rally car to replace the EF, and have just secured sponsorship for a new drivetrain. Chances are, we'll be getting an EH2 and installing the K20A2 for Group 2 competition.

My question: How much ground clearance is there, and will it be enough to make it over "obstacles" when installed in a 1992-95 Civic HB.

Thanks,

Chris

Depends on the mount kit you are using, but i went with the Hasport kit for the better clearance it provides. (Compared to other kits i have seen).

Hasport's EGK1 mount kit

Should be good, especially with the skid plate.

Listen to Nikos for anything K series related.

Also try checking out his forum, K20a.org for more info on K swaps.
