h22 p/s belt problem..

[bluepearldreamz]

alright here's my dilema, oneoffaccord and i have been working on my '92 lx h22 swap. the car was originally automatic, but we changed it over to 5 speed. we sawpped a '94 usdm h22a in and everything. we did a little trick as suggested by cp[mike] with washers on the drivers side mount to drop the motor down about a half inch. that worked fine and all the belts went on the pulley fine. but when i tightened the tensioners the power steering belt hits the inner fender wall just alittle where the drivers wount is welded in, we have no clue why and i'm wondering if anyone else had this problem and how to fix it. the front and drivers mounts are both stock accord one, the trans and rear mount are both prelude 5 speed.... any ideas???

[oneoffaccord]

im lost just as you are bro. its weird, it seems like the motor is to far to the drivers side

[NAiL05]

Take out some washers and see if it straightens out a bit maybe?

[hardmoneyhonda]

we put mine in tonight but it is auto and it didnt hit. so i think she is too far over

[oneoffaccord]

thats what we might do. when you are looking at the back mount (tranny) you can see it pushed all the way to one side of the mount.

i think we'll try removing a couple washers.. i really dont know what else there is to do. the front dog bone mount isn't in yet, thats off too, but i guess its just a process of test from here.. hopefully. but larry's right it seems to far over to the drivers side

what were all the mounts you used?? just curious

[Importkitz]

When I did my swap, I used all accord mounts. The h22 tranny has pre-drilled holes that match up with the accord's tranny mount. All you have to do is tap it. It lines up nicely.

[cp[mike]]

he did an auto-manual conversion using a prelude mount.

i missed this thread back when you posted it, but im going to head up there with you guys this thursday and we can figure it out

[oneoffaccord]

sweet cuz this shit is fucking crazy

[bluepearldreamz]

word i'm confused..and worried, hopefully its something small and its not a big deal...

[oneoffaccord]

its alot better tonite. after [cp]mike came thru. mike and bryan did some grinding and cutting of the prelude tranny mount and BAM its done.

[bluepearldreamz]

true.. next step is.. ignition!!

[oneoffaccord]
