I am replacing the soft O-200 type Lord mounts with the stiffer ones supplied
by Europa.
Do any of you lister's know the length of the spacers in the FWF kit ?
Thank's, Sam N77EU

Sam,

You are going to have to make up 4 spacers 1.7" long out of .5" tube with an
internal ID of .306" I seem to recall that the standard ones would not
compress the Lord mounts enough when I made mine.

Paul

Regarding changing the engine mountings. I advise that you discuss this with
Andy before going ahead. I have just replaced my mountings after five year's
service. He has advised me not to go to softer alternatives. When Europa
tried it they discovered that the engine developed a noticeable sag after a
while.

They have developed an alternative design using the same bushes, but
reducing the compression by securing with slightly longer bolts and spacers.

Cheers Bryan
