Everything ive seen seems to be done on guestimation, i know its got to be inline with the strut etc but thats a bit vague for my liking & i dont have an engine to take dimensions off of yet. So has one put any exact dimensions for it out there? any help appreciated :)

There's no exact dimensions as it depends what mount you use as there all slightly different I know the vans is totally different to the loons
