I know there's a thread on here about it. basically you have to put the top bolts in, and screw a stud in the engine and a bolt through the gearbox for the bottom, and then weld them together using some 10mm bar to span the gap. I'll try to find some pics for you :thumbup:

check down this page, shows you how to do. just realized though, you might have some trouble fitting the 1.0 gearbox, this method uses the 1.3 gearbox, which would suit the engine better anyways. hope this helps you

Mounting gearbox to.engine or to.chassis?

If it's an '83 the chassis mounts are different.
