Engine position

[jps]

How does this look? I'm getting everything in place so I can get the engine and gearbox mounts in place. Sitting at the wheel the gear lever is perfect but I am a bit concerned that there seems to be LOADS of room at the front end, so i'm wondering if i've got it too far back.....?

There is roughly 2cm between the back of the block and the rail that goes across the top of the footwells...

Spot on I reckon, further back you can get the engine the better IMO

you can never have it too far back unless it is behind you.:D
