im putting a c20xe in a corsa and was wondering if the rubber engine mount needs to be changed or will the standard corsa one do?:thumb:

doesnt matter what model or engine there all the same and yes the rubber ones are fine
some people use valcunised rubber and fill them in to make them abit stiffer
but its preferences really

yeah it does cause if hes got a type 1 model then he will have this type of mount

which i aint seen an upgrade for this part yet so you can just fill the spaces with tigerseal

if you have the type 2 you will use this

and if your using this you can either use a standard mount, i used one from a nova gsi and filled the spaces with tigerseal or you can order an upgraded version from chris astley, regal etc

the type 1 version, the only option ive seen so far is to take a new mount and either fill the spaces with valcunised rubber or tigerseal, theres lot of options for the type 2 version but very little for the type 1

so what would be wrong with just using the standard mount is it not advisable?
