Designed to accommodate a Honda K24 engine paired with a compatible K20 manual transmission, this conversion mount kit provides the specialized mounting components needed to position and secure the K-Series drivetrain in the lightweight Honda Insight chassis.

The first-generation Honda Insight is recognized for its lightweight aluminum construction, aerodynamic design, and unique engineering. These characteristics make it an appealing platform for enthusiasts seeking to build an unconventional, high-performance Honda.

Swapping the original ECA-series hybrid engine for a K24 offers increased displacement and substantial performance potential. However, the conversion requires specialized mounting components to accommodate the differences between the factory Insight drivetrain and the replacement K-Series engine.

The Innovative Mounts 90753 addresses these requirements with a purpose-built steel mounting system featuring driver-side, passenger-side, and rear mounting components, along with K24-specific conversion brackets.

Performance polyurethane bushings help reduce excessive drivetrain movement during acceleration, deceleration, and shifting. This provides improved drivetrain stability and more consistent engine positioning compared with worn factory rubber mounts.

Featuring CAD/CAM-engineered components, stress-analyzed construction, and Innovative Mounts' no-tear polyurethane bushing design, the 90753 is an excellent mounting solution for naturally aspirated K24 builds, turbocharged applications, drag racing projects, and dedicated motorsport vehicles.

Important: The Innovative Mounts 90753 requires a Honda Insight originally equipped with a manual transmission, a compatible K24 engine, and a K20-style manual transmission. It is not designed for K20 engine conversions or factory-automatic Insight chassis.

Recommended for street-oriented K24 Insight conversions where improved drivetrain stability is desired while retaining some vibration isolation.

Manufacturer horsepower guidance: approximately 250–400 HP.

85A – Grey – Performance / Race

Provides increased drivetrain rigidity for modified engines, aggressive driving, and competition applications.

Manufacturer horsepower guidance: approximately 400–500 HP.

95A – Red – Extreme Race
