    Rear mount for automatic and manual are different. Maybe that is why???

      Both are manuals so they should be the same right

        I'd assume it should work, then. If you are re-using old mounts, you may have fitment issue due to them getting set/sagging/old and such.

          First thing i'd say is that itt would be easier to help you out if you described what model cb7 (EX, LX, SE, DX), rear mount, and rear mount bracket you are using. Second thing i'd say is that you should not be using the Prelude rear mount.
          RIP '91 LX.

            Remove all the Prelude mounts and use only CB mounts. I would have done that before I posted something. If your problem is deeper than that then you're not being very clear.

              No Prelude mounts should ever be used. The F22A1 is identical to the Accord's engine, but the mounts are different, as the Prelude's engine bay is different. The F22A1 should bolt right in using Accord mounts. Now would be a very good time to buy new mounts. It'll never be easier to change them than it is with the engine out of the car!

                the f22a1 is the same motor in the accord. so why should anything be changed? i wasn't aware the preludes came with the wimpy f series

                  The 4th gen Prelude S did... and the F series isn't exactly wimpy... it has potential. It just starts low!
                  The F22A1 in the Prelude S is the SAME as the Accord engine, but it has 135hp instead of 125 due to the P12 ECU (instead of the Accord's PT3)

                  The engine is exactly the same, but if the OP is trying to use the Prelude mounts, that will make a difference. Those mounts are made to bolt that identical engine into an engine bay that is NOT identical.

                    It was in the Prelude S but it had a more aggressive tuned ECU which is why the guys with the A1 want it so bad for an easy 10 HP

                        Wish I knew that back when I had an a1. would the same ml effect happen for my a6?

                          If you're asking about the engine computer, i'd say it won't help you much because the a6 computer also controls the IABs on the intake manifold for that engine. the PT3 and the P12 ECUs do not control IABs.

                            Correct. The PT6 is also tuned for the A6's camshaft, which is different than the A1's.
