Crossflow mounts
Dont know if this is the right section for this but here goes anyway. Anybody got any pictures of engine mountings they made for fitting a crossflow
into the chassis have lots of ideas but unsure which road to go done. Any pictures would be very helpfull indeed.
Cheers

I made these, very similar to those shown in the book. They use Cortina rubber mounts.

Below are my current engine mounts. The photos not a great one (a little blury).
Its made from 40x40 ERW with a 3mm wall and some 3mm plate, to a similare design as Mark Allanson used.
The rubber is a standard land rover (series IIRC), therefore they are cheap and very readily avalible.
