    Driver side engine mount question

    Yesterday I noticed one of the two bolts that hook the driver side mount to the bracket on the motor was missing and the other was hanging on by maybe two threads. I got a 17mm in there and got them snugged up but now I question are they even in right.
    I think the best way to ask is are those bolts supposed to screw up or do they screw down. Right now my engine bracket is under the mount with threads so they are screwed down pulling the engine up against the mount. Or should the engine bracket be on top and the bolts coming in from the bottom. I'm thinking that's how most honda mounts are, this motor has been in here for over ten years possibly wrong. I have looked at hundreds of engine bay pictures and can't tell in those. The only ones with a good shot at the mount are fuzzy. I won't get to the j/y for a week.
    It's a 91 lx with an f22a6 swap. Though I don't think that matters.
    Edit. Maybe there was studs on the engine bracket originally?
    Question edit. Does the engine bracket go under or over the mount bracket.

    Screwed down, pulling engine up, you did a good job

      Thanks, I wouldn't say good job. I think about six months ago I heard something bounce off my undercarriage a couple times. Finally found it.

        On all mine, one is a bolt, one is a stud with a nut.

          Thank you. I saw some photos of h22's out if the car and saw the stud sticking up. It looks like the stud and nut is the one I lost. The more forward of the two fasteners. I would still like to try to get a stud because it will center the larger than 17mm bolt hole on the mount.
