Same with EKs, and Integras... Example... AndyJT pulled it off.
And have you seen the ground clearance for the eks with those mounts? You would have to be brave to drive those on public streets.

Agreed. Its reccomend for drag only applications. The way i did my mounts allows for the hood to close and retains all the ground clearance.

yeah, thats what happens when you let someone that doesnt know how to time the motor time it. yesterday i had my car towed back from adrenalin to my house and i started ripping apart everything i just now got done taking everything off, the valves do look like they somewhat touched but i ordered new supertech valves and on monday my head goes back up to the machine shop to have my new valves put in

They have no brains because they took it there, and more money because Im sure they bought the car with the motor already in or paid someone to do it for them, Adrenaline or otherwise. If you have the knowledge to do a J swap yourself you should be able to mod your hood to fit over the motor as well. Just my $.02
