Drivers side mount looks ok, but...

with the gearbox spacer, the nova box would have run 2 bolts, but the F16/F20 boxes run 3 bolts, so the better brackets to use are the 3 bolt ones which require minor mods to the actual gearbox mount itself.

When only using the 2 bolt fixing on the F16/F20, I have found that even when loktiting the bolts in with the O.E fasteners aswell, the bolts either lossen, bend, snap or 'ping' the threads in the box.
