I did Mangew's AE82 with GZE, and it will depenmd what motor you're using. I used an AE101 engine.
The driver side chassis mount is AE82 with a spacer tube used for the bolt closest to the cam cover.
The passenger side gearbox chassis mount i had to modify to sit correctly, I used a 4AGE gearbox bracket and added a section to it for the third bolt, and slotted the holes to mount the engine at the correct angle, you can test this by the mount angles to the bracket, and pulley spacing from the chassis rail. actual mount is ae82 too.
x-member was an utter bitch, i used a 16mm spacer plate at the back when i had the engine sitting correctly. at the front of the 4agze box i used an ae82 rear gearbox mount bracket turned upside down and holes slotted slightly and std 4age front mount. rear i used the 4agze bracket and ae82 rear mount, i also had to weld a plate under the rear of the x-member and redrill the holes to the far edge of the x-member to line the mount up correct. similar with the front.
It is a pain in the ass.
Regards,
Michael
