Rankine I’ll let you know when I’ve got some sets made.

Knocked up the jigs for the standard style mounts over a few lunchtimes at work (not the best welding as we only have 0.6mm wire at work, not ideal for 6mm plate 😅)

Then made some mounts at home that drop the engine 40mm using the jigs. The inlet manifold now has a nice amount of bonnet clearance, I don’t think I’ll have sump clearance issues either 🤞

Just need to finish the gearbox mount now to also lower that 40mm to keep the angle correct and I can whip them all off to blast and paint.

Jigs are working well the man! Will exhaust manifold Clear the chassis alright?

You would think so looking from above but it’s all good.

Just need to nick and modify the downpipe adapter off the J20. It needs a lambda fitting and spacer adding to it to trick it into thinking there’s a CAT still.

Ideal man it did look a little close in first pic. Will the lambda thinking there's no cat effect the running or just throw a code up?

Just throw a code up so I’ve got one of those extension things to try 🤞 it works 😅
