    Default 20xe into nova

    having trouble getting my engine mounted into my bay. my engine conversion bracket comes with 3x holes, i have solid motorsport mounts, so am i correct in saying it goes into the top hole of the bracket? rear box mount is no-where near the hole. stressing me out far too much and giving me second thoughts on whether to carry on this project build!! grrr

    I had same problem, i used a windy jack to push the engine forward and a normal jack to raise it to were i needed it,and just got it in Make sure you have a lever bar ready and be prepared to loosen the other mounts for a little extra movement .

    This has been asked a few times if you search the forum for 'solid mounts'. You'll need to slot the rear mount bracket holes, line it all up and see what hole on the front mount makes you level. If none, make your own between the others and strengthen with a big fat washer.
