Guest vinnyvangough Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 What engine mount did you have to use? CVH mount with a different rubber? I'm putting a 1.8 zetec into my early OHV Mk3, and used the CVH mount and CVH rubber, and the engine is sat at a very funny angle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
