Watsons rear engine mount

[PaulAmes]

OK looking at the mounts today - obvious where the front one goes. The back obviously bolts onto where the rear mounting normally goes but where does it connect to the watsons subframe??? Anyone got any pics or anything. I have tried to find some left and right mounts but they are gonna cost me around 120 pounds for both so I am gonna make my own up tomorrow. Tried partco, pearl but v.expensive and they aint even gonna bolt strait on.

If partco are anymore than £ 30 each then ask for more discount..

And the right 1 should bolt straight on.

Well the mounts I was looking at were pem96 (cam cover) and pem 97 which looks as if it might fit the trans side. What U think?

[Minimivic]

I'm pretty sure the 96 is the right mount for the cam cover, but the 97 is different to my gearbox mount. Hope someone else can tell us if it looks OK. Trouble is I made my frame myself so I had the gerbox mount and just made things fit. The cam cover mount I had to copy the Watson idea because the Mount on the 99 civic is completely different and coundn't make it fit in any way.

Anyone? http://www.pearlproducts.co.uk/pictures/PEM97.gif

Yeh - ive seen the normall mount - will not fit the frame. This one only looks like it has two holes need 3 - but if the two fit then it would be ok. I asked in wilco for these parts and they said 120 pounds - thats with 20 markup. Also anyone have any idears about the watsons rear mount?

If you bought your frame from Geoff, why not give him a call and ask, he’s very friendly and helpful, Have a look here at my car under construction a few weeks ago.
