   Yes, it is very stretched, the other side is compressed. I was having trouble moving it into place and ended up stretching the cv joint completely apart. I need to take it out and take it apart to put it back together again, but I should be able to fidget it into place eventually
2. Check on the HF tranny and pull the mount plate off it. It looks like the plate (not the mount) almost has the same bolt pattern as the Insight transaxle, and could maybe be a starting point for the d-side tower mount.
   By plate do you mean the on the top portion of the transmission where the mount bolts in?
3. The p-side tower mount, flip your original D-series d-side front mount over so that the bolt holes are facing up, bolt a plate to the mount section of the engine, and weld a plate up and across to connect the two. The mount will have to be bolted from the backside.
   I was planning on doing what the k-series guys do, which is to cut off the old mount and weld a new one in, as you can see in this picture:
4. Why does the d-side axle look like it's canted forward from the hub to the engine?
   Canted? Hm?
