Engine mounts wanted

Hi all

Got my striker back today after having dry sump fitted,

But due the pump location and the fact when the engine was made originally it was not at the correct angle I think to clear the bonnet,

But now it is at the correct angle it hits the bonnet, grrrrr,

But the rubber engine mounts it is on a quite tall about 40 mm I think,

It's on a k series engine,

I just wondered if any one new a good place to get engine rubber mounts that may be lower,

Caterham do them at 27 mm but are £19 each seems a bit steep?

Link to the caterham one to give you and idea what I'm looking for but mo locust if poss,

Thanks all if I cant get any i will have to get these I suppose,

Thanks

Sean

You can afford to have a dry sump fitted but £19 for an engine mount is steep?

What size are the old ones? Can you refit them at all?

eBay item number: 160770631625

They are jag e-type mounts. I got genuine ones from one of the suppliers a while ago, about £12 each. Cheaper available, but genuine stuff is always better value.
