    you dont need a mount kit save your money and use the stock mt mount from junkyard.remember your not doing anything crazy here just stock manual trans and the wires to connect are the green and white to the solid black if you need pics i will send them.its fairly easy and much better for life of your car enjoy!!! and to the guy who had to weld,why did you have to weld when you could have gotten stock mount especially when it works with your bracket? pm me if you need any other info...

      ohh and take my advice dont get a 5spd brake pedal just cut yours so you can fit clutch pedal in and not hit it with your foot! pedals are the worst part.oh and your master cyl line will suck too good luck kids

          I am going to do mine next month also....if my parts get here.
          This is a good prep step for the H22 in the spring.

                    It was fairly easy for me i did mine back in june. I bought a car for $350 bucks and used all the parts from it. I want to give u some advice of what not to do like i did. Dont forget to grab a rear motor mount. Replace Flywheel and get a Clutch kit from anywhere BUT get a release bearing from honda this is very important or you might have problems. I used a prelude tranny mount had to modifiy it a little and relocate two of the studs. Its best to get a new clutch master cylinder, and slave cylinder. Dont forget to torque everthing down to specs. Good luck my friend and make sure if you do it do it right the first time dont be like me and have to take the tranny out 3 time to make it right.

                        wow that's pretty inexpensive. My cb7 is sadly auto transmission but i always loved driving manual. is 750-800 on a used conversion or new?

                            Do you really expect to find new 5 speed parts for a 15 year old car?

                            Well, I suppose certain things can be new... clutch, hydraulics... but the more new you get, the more it costs.

                            $500 is about the average for a used swap, and you can do it for MUCH less if you shop smart. Transmissions from people who have done H22 swaps are often 150 or less. Hit a junkyard for the lines, pedals, etc... The master and slave cylinders are probably good to get new, as is the clutch (and might as well get a new flywheel and pressure plate at the same time)
