this engine probably will never run in that car
i have the luxury of having 2 1200s, this one is full of rust, so it is the guinea pig, it gets the whole trans tunnel cut out so i can see how big the gearbox really is
ill be starting the search for a 4x4 720 sump soon, and also the gearbox
i modified the engine mounts on the engine a fair bit, now mount the engine 25mm lower and 30mm further forward than standard, had to mount it forward to get the engine mount stalks on the crossmember centred
then i found out that standard 180b engine mount things(ones that also bolt to engine) sit the engine at the same height as my modded ones
so basically im only using this car to make the crossmember in and figure out how to attack the trans tunnel
