Wish we'd read this far into the thread hey Partridge!Right having just finished doing the engine mounts on Racing 182's car, I thought I add a few extra notes Problem bolt Firstly who ever tightened the three bolts that hold the bracket to the block had done them up so tight one started to round off when removing and another did round off. This way a bit of a nightmare luckily my mate was at his workshop so we took it down there and after trying various methods to remove it what finally worked was. Weld a large washer with a 14mm hole on top of the nut, then build up some weld on top of the washer and nut, finally weld a large nut on top of this, allowing you to put a lot more torque through the bolt.

I'm about to change the side mounts on my Turbo - any new experiences to share or things to keep in mind before attempting the job?

Lost for words funny was my initial reaction. But I didn't want to leave anything in print given my recent potential selection as a candidate for the Newry and Mourne Catholic River Wideners Party in the upcoming elections. I haven't been selected so I can say what I want now.
I am a bit gutted on the betting front though as I had a few quid on 05/11/24 ...
