    as far as i know the engine mounts are different for that year lude even though they have the same engine. and the tranny I think did bolt up. There was a discussion about that a little bit ago, but i can't remember were. Try using the search button and look up prelude AND engine.

    the prelude mounts with the Accord engine will work fine.

    The Et2 is the 1.8l engine?

    if you use your ET2 flywheel/clutch/pressure plate/starter, you can use your transmission on the A20A

    right.....

    If you're affraid to burn the clutch, just get an ACT clutch.

    The 1.8L has a sportier gearing. The A20A lude has a nice gearing too.
