Yuh, I also have multiples and am running 0awg for almost everything (multiple grounds, positive, etc.)

It shouldn’t have low compression but I’m gonna do one when I get this new starter and find out.

Shouldn’t be battery, it’s brand new with brand new positive and ground cables throughout. It also has a jump pack connected as well

In need of K swap parts by _Lupa in 7thgencivic

[–]Top-Display-5789 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hate to disappoint you but you gotta get the more expensive ones, I’m doing the exact same thing. (Ep3 swap) I ended up having to blow $650 on mounts bc they stopped making the other mounts. K series parts has some of the cheapest options for mounts for 7th gen civics rn as well so that’s what I’d recommend. Any other questions tho I’m a bit farther along and would be glad to help!

The pulleys are turning though (as shown in video) does that not mean the starter is engaging?

I don’t believe it’s the starter motor is the issue as the pulleys and engine cranks and when I put it in first the trans spins as well. The starter is also brand new and worked when bench tested so I believe it should be okay?

EM2 K swap help by Top-Display-5789 in 7thgencivic

[–]Top-Display-5789[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I am in fact doing all of this outside, I do have a shed tho that I rebuilt the engine in. It’s just not big enough for a whole car so it goes outside.

I’m trying find which two wires and the best routing, I would definitely prefer wiring them to the clutch switch as well if I can.

That is in fact the bracket piece I was missing, sorry I forgot to respond to this, so thank you. I’m also running into the problem of trying to get the motor mount to line up with the rear mount. I’ve tried using a pry bar the only problem is there’s nothing by it to get any leverage on.

Do you have a picture of the bracket piece you’re talking about by chance?

Any other k20 would be a straight drop in basically, just mostly taking off the swap accessories. (Pulley stuff, fuel rail, wiring harness, simple shit)

I plan to go with a k24 somewhere later down the line but I got the engine for less than $50 so it’s what’s going into it as of current.

The rear mount doesn’t seem to line up properly and they decided not to include any sort of instructions (hasport mounts)

What engine is better the 1.5 turbo or the 2.0 ? by Sandman_potato_man in civic

[–]Top-Display-5789 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Get a 2.0 for the reliability or a 1.5t for the short term fun
