The mounts I use with the kit are a 37mm urethane mounts with 10mm studs. The kelpro book says they suit Ford, Rover. They are very stiff and are a good generic count for oddball conversion work so I use them a lot. I don't see how an engineer could fail the car because of 3 mm steel removed from a bracket. If this was an issue then I guess the sump could be moved a few mm further. SR20 will not work with these mounts as they have different boss layout on the block... very different. The engine/gearbos angle is close to perfect (hence the sump mods). The factory tilt of the CA is retained. I don't see oil supply being a problem. I had the first one I did in and out many times too. But I was very happy with the result so decided it was worth offering a kit. I may do one for SR20 as well. 45aken, I'm not sure what simon used. I think he bought the motor already set up for AE86. A little too involved to go into eveything required. I may doa webpage soon to support the kit, and will try and put some guidelines up there. As with anything like this, it's the fiddly stuff that takes the time and hence costs the money. The idea of the kit is that if you have half an idea how to do the fiddly stuff, then with this the motor is bolted in and that's a big start. If you can't do the little stuff (source/fit suitable radiator, move battery, plumb intercooler, upgrade fuel system, throttle cable, measure/order tail shaft etc. etc) then you have no choice but to pay someone or hope you have capable friends [Report message to a moderator]
