Since I don't have access other than someones gallery I would like to know how thw Watson frame mounts up?

I have looked at Paul Ames' gallery and it appears that the frame mounts to the 4 bolt holes that the original shock mount used? It does not look like the normal tower mount holes are used at all. Is there another bolt from the front into the triangle above the bulkhead?

I assume the bottom is the standard Mini location into the floor and sloped firewall.

I am after this more for information purposes than anything else. It's always good to know these things if talking to someone else doing a refit.

Hi,

yeh the Watsons frame mounts onto the four bolt holes where the dampners mount and then again right underneath the car with 3 bolts either side. It is not the standard Mini location - you have to drill some holes - not a problem mind.

All in all there are four mount locations.
