2 litre pinto engine mount position?
I would like to get these mounts fitted to the chassis but I am not yet ready or able to try the engine in position. If anyone has successfully fitted a 2 litre pinto I would be grateful for the measurements as to where they are fixed.
Thanks, Vince |
Best idea is to fit engine and box for sump clearance etc and then suss out placement of mounting plates.
I have my engine/gearbox placed at 2ins forward off the top rear rail closest to gearbox and this gives clearance for rev light switch and clutch arm. I will try to upload the pics I took. Use landrover rubber mounts,much stronger and cheaper, Saturn do them . |
The book mounts are for a 2 litre pinto. The book mounts can only fit in one place on the chassis rails.

When I did mine for my 1800 pinto, I attached the mounts to the engine then lowered it into position. I found that with the holes in the original position on the mounts wouldn't sit in the right place on the rails. I ended up plugging the old holes and redrilling them to get everything in the right place. If you want I can get you some pics and dimensions, but personally I would wait until you fit the engine and tack them up in situ.
