I am pretty sure that you have to use the CRV passenger bracket so that your honda factory mounts can fit and hold the block... I think the motor will still fit under the stock hood. A few people on here have such ep3 civics.. Let's see what they have to say.
Want to lower the K24 with 19.7mm, HOW?!?
hello.
I´m a newbie here on k20.org, I´m from sweden and says -Hej! to everyone!
I´m gonna do the K24 hybrid in my EP3, but I need to get the engines Manifold in the same hight (spelling?) as it sits in now. So when I´ve kicked in the ass of the K24 block I need to make it 19.7mm lower, but how?
I know that everyone says that when you´re doing the K20/K24 combo you need the CRV passanger bracket, but I don´t because then the head is raised ~20mm, and I can´t deal with that... (I´ve my reasons, trust me)
So If I use my original pass. bracket that´s fine, and I think that i can make a spacer for the drivers side-tranny mount, but how should I do with the front and the rear mounts/brackets????

Thanks Nikos!
But I have clearness problems already with my K20A2, I´m building my own sc with water/air-cooler, thats why I cant install the K24 block if I dont lower the engine...
So I know that I can NOT use the OEM mounts....
I need to do something else, custom mounts or brackets, or whatever, help me out please!

Í have already modifed my hood underneath. I want it to be a sleeper so I´ll keep it clean. So nope, no custom-style hood.
Tonight I think i got an idea of how to make the block to sit lower, I can proberbly use my oem mounts if I modified them a litle. I have to make a new hole for the bolt that goes through my ES mounts 20mm higher then it sits right now, and then weld a new nut ther. (I hope you understand my crappy english now, I´m very tired at this moment)
This I have to both the front and the rear mounts, maybe I´ll just move it something like 15-16mm....
The Paa. mount/bracket I dont need to change and for the tranny side bracket I´ll just make a spacer.
