It could be something for the future mate, i know i looked at that about 4 years ago but never sorted it out in the end!

David.

[djbrowney]

dont waste your time, the standard chassis mount sits in the way of the gearbox lol

[blue_peg_16v]

i would think dave would know this hes done a few conversions now

[Benn]

Joff's done it. I was gonna look at coping his...

[Nova_Tek]

you could make a load of cash, if you make a f28 mount that uses to nova gearbox mounts lol

you read my mind mate I was just thinking that today.

Dude, you'd make s*it loads of cashmoney if you were able to come up with that. I'd deffo buy one off you. If you had one now I'd buy it.

[Nova_Tek]

Sorry fortgot to ask, Benn have you got a link showing the mount that Joff did?

[blue_peg_16v]

its in his build thread i just looked through it theres a pic of it on the box on the floor a simple solution

[Nova_Tek]

[Benn]

This. I was thinking of trying to make one.. If i get a f28.

[Nova_Tek]

Cheers Benn (+rep)

So that is the standard N/S engine mount in it's factory position right?

You running an F20 Benn?

[david dixon]

thats not the standard chassis though is it?

David.

[Nova_Tek]

TBH it looks as if that mount has been shifted forward but I can't tell for sure from that angle (hence why I asked Benn the above question).

[Benn]

Cheers and no not yet..

David.

And above, yeah i believe it is. Looks like mine... Bar less smooth.

[david dixon]

it looks too far forward to be standard that mate, and the gap between the box and chassis is far to big.

David.

[Nova_Tek]

Ok- I really thought you were running an F28. I'm gonna start off with an F20 (due to budget) but if I can sus out this homemade mount then it may help.

Maybe the fact it looks all welded an un-smooth makes me think it's been moved forward.

David.

We're gonna need comparison pics and a pic from a slightly wider angle. Either that or ask Joff.

[david dixon]

check here against the other.....

doh lol

[Nova_Tek]

just so you don't need to go back a previous page

[Benn]

Oh yeah, wouldn't have noticed that till you put your pic up to compare too..

Guess he cut it off and moved it.. Wonder why he didn't just fit a f28 mount..

[david dixon]

not sure to be fair, or he could have done what i did, cut off the nova mount and weld 2 nuts under the chassis and use the full calibra mount and rubber!

David.

cos he had the f28 in years ago when he had the xe in it before f28 mounts were readily available was when it was red

courtenay still used f20s on there let conversions when joff fitted the f28
