I think he was having issues with the way he did it. I bolt the mount loosely to the t bracket in the rear and put it in from up top. It's usually a pretty easy process
I have had a 1990 accord EX for 15 years. I bought it from the original owner and I still marvel at how fun it is to drive. It just feels connected to the ground. Your build looks awesome. I wish I had the know how to do a swap like yours. That extra HP will be so nice.
I've never done a swap but there's plenty of info on RU-vid. I'm confident I could do it. I might take me a week to get ALL the details right. But she'd be in and mounted in just a few hours
A lot of work but great job and please have some anti theft protection on it coz they are 2 ez to Staal my 90 accord got stole in less than a minute when I went to grab food from restaurant
I NEED HELP LOOKING FOR THIS ENGINE. LOVE your videos. As a 2 cb7s owner, you have been the only videos ive been watching for the pass 2 days. lol Im following every step you shown. and will be continueing so until i finish 1 of 2 of mines.
I have a 95 ex trans, what axles will i need to use? I read that the passenger side are the same, but specs on the cb7 axles are about 1/2~ inch shorter than 95 axles?....
I read somewhere on cb7 forums about drilling and re welding the bracket for the transmission mount to attach to. By using the innovative/hasport mounts bypass needing to do so?
Wow this makes me want to do something like this! So did you basically use all the prelude parts and did everything go straight in? ECU, Trans, axles, etc.??
re-used CB7 engine harness, CB7 axles, custom mounts and a few other tidbits. It gets quite involved and I tried to cover it all with the video series.
Its been known to be easier to pull up from underneath. you will need either a car lift or to get the front end up high enough where you can pull it upwards. The hardest part it angling the engine and lining up that first mount. Once the rear mount is on, it goes a lot easier.
