Upgrade your fourth-generation Honda Prelude with the Innovative Mounts 29650 Steel Replacement Engine Mount Kit, specifically designed for 1992–1996 Honda Prelude models equipped with compatible H-Series or F-Series engines and a manual transmission.

Engineered as a performance-oriented replacement for the factory engine mounting system, this three-piece kit provides increased drivetrain stability, reduced engine movement, and improved durability for street-driven and modified Honda Prelude applications.

Over time, factory rubber and hydraulic engine mounts can deteriorate, allowing excessive engine rocking, unwanted transmission movement, and additional stress on surrounding drivetrain components. Worn mounts may contribute to clunking during acceleration or deceleration, increased drivetrain vibration, and inconsistent shifting feel.

The Innovative Mounts 29650 addresses these concerns with heavy-duty steel mounting assemblies and performance polyurethane bushings.

Unlike conventional factory rubber or fluid-filled hydraulic mounts, polyurethane bushings provide increased resistance to drivetrain movement. This helps maintain more consistent engine and transmission positioning during acceleration, deceleration, and gear changes.

Each mounting assembly incorporates Innovative Mounts' unique no-tear polyurethane bushing design, engineered to control unwanted engine movement while providing vibration isolation appropriate to the selected bushing hardness.

The kit includes three primary mounting assemblies:

• Driver-side engine mount

• Passenger-side manual transmission mount

• Rear engine mount

Together, these components provide coordinated drivetrain support for compatible fourth-generation Prelude applications.

Designed for H-Series and F-Series Engines

The Innovative Mounts 29650 supports compatible Honda H-Series and F-Series engines installed in the 1992–1996 Prelude chassis.

This includes popular H22, H23, and F22 engine configurations using the appropriate manual transmission mounting arrangement.

The kit is an excellent choice for Prelude owners replacing worn factory mounts, upgrading drivetrain support for increased horsepower, or restoring a fourth-generation Prelude with a more performance-oriented mounting system.

Automatic-to-Manual Conversion Compatibility

In addition to factory manual-transmission vehicles, the Innovative Mounts 29650 is designed to support compatible automatic-to-manual transmission conversions.

For enthusiasts converting an automatic fourth-generation Prelude to a five-speed manual, the 29650 provides the primary engine and transmission mounting assemblies for the specified manual drivetrain configuration.

Additional conversion components, including the manual transmission, clutch, flywheel, pedal assembly, hydraulic system, and shifter components, must be sourced separately.

Performance Polyurethane Bushing Options

The Innovative Mounts 29650 is available with three polyurethane bushing hardness configurations:

75A: Designed for street and performance applications, providing increased drivetrain rigidity while maintaining some vibration isolation.

85A: Intended for track-oriented applications requiring firmer drivetrain support.

95A: Designed for dedicated competition applications where maximum resistance to drivetrain movement is preferred.

Higher-durometer polyurethane bushings generally transmit more vibration into the vehicle's chassis. Selecting the appropriate bushing hardness helps balance drivetrain control with passenger comfort.

Whether you're restoring your H22-powered Prelude, completing a five-speed manual conversion, or upgrading a modified H-Series performance build, the Innovative Mounts 29650 provides a durable and application-specific engine mounting solution.
