I've decided to use the land rover engine mounts again ....if they are strong enough for a V8 then they will be ok for my engine, after a rummage around my loft I came across a real beefy tow bar mount so I cut it in half on the bandsaw
I then took a small strip of ally and bent it to the angles required for the nissans engine mounts then off down to shed to drill 10mm holes and use the oxy gear to put some heat into the point of bends (remembering to add the thickness onto the dimensions) took some heat and a big shifty spanner to bend it, but it did work out fine. All I need now is the mounts which are on there way to me, when I get those on I can finalize the last pair of small gearbox mount near the back end of the box and then soon after that and a few small bit and pieces I will be ready to paint the chassis....only one piccy today
