bump:

well believe it or not its a well known issue that the motor wont sit level and theres potential of breaking axles when using the prelude mount to convert. its also mentioned everywhere that to compensate, you need to add shims/washers to the driver side motor mount.

if you put a piece of wood and a jack under the oil pan ( to hold the motor), remove the main cross bolt out of the front motor mount. you can then remove the driver side mount. stack up 1/2" worth of washers on the stud, as well as on the second hole that the second bolt goes through. then put the moutn back on. the front mount bolt wont go in perfectly, youll have to jack up the front of the motor a bit to get it to line up.

doing this will hold the driver side of the motor a bit lower, so its level, so the axle wont keep breaking...

is your crank pulley rubbing on the side of the engine bay?

Damn his posts are painful to read.

if you didnt use the spacers/shims on the drivers side mount, this could have been one of the more extreme consqequences of the motor tilt

when doing auto manual swap tranmission mount passenger side.
u have to weld manual mount braket to the fender well. cut the auto transmisson mount braket out and weld the manual one in
the bolt hole on auto is lower than manual. if u dont they will keep snapping and easly

That would be the proper way to do it if you had a welder handy. If not the 5th gen is the other way to do it and all you need to do is shim it. Not as effective but it works.
