It will still let you get the height of the engine correct while the suspension is loaded, so the axles are straight. :P

I"m gonna check at the post office and see if they'll fit in any of the flat rate boxes. If they do, that'll rawk.

Shouldn't be any lower than the lowest point of the cross member.

Have you tried to fit your hood on in the current configuration to see where it hits?

Yep. It hits in the same place it hits for people with K swaps If it's not much hit after I lower it down a little I'm sure I may be able to get clearance by grinding off a little of the support beam

Difficulty is often a function of Expirience

My expirience tells me it will be difficult to make the time to help you. Having no expirience making Insight motor mounts for CRX's tells me "No Problem!" Ignorance is bliss...
