    Does anyone have a HOTSHOT Header on their H22A swap?

    http://www.hotshot.com/hotshotheaders/hd3070.html

    This is the header I ordered. On their website it clearly states that it will not fit an ACCORD or PRELUDE chassis...
    But I think this is because of the front engine mount clearence. I already have solid polyurethane mounts sitting @ home waiting to be installed, so I can remove my front mount to make room for the new header and still have no engine play.
    If it doesn't clear the subframe, I have plans or removing that too, and replacing it with a custom traction bar.
    My buddy has this header on his H22A in a 92 Civic EG 4 door.

    I was wondering if any of you guys have this header or are aware of the fitment and clearence problems.

    Any feedback is appreciated. Thanks.

        if you lose your front mount will be in for hell with your other mounts.

        when my front mount broke, i didnt get it fixed right away and my rear mount started to crack. and i had to get my tranny mount re-fabricated

          with solid urethane mounts for the other three, i think he will be ok... civic owners run without front mounts all the time since they have urethane mounts

            other than the crossmember, i knew someone that had one in a hatch and it had issues with rubbing the alternator. it was a very tight fit.

              That's what I think too. My only concern is the downpipe being too low to the ground and hitting everywhere.
              Yes it is a tight fit, but I'm willing to 'customize' to get around it.
              I appreciate the feedback from everyone.
