Zetec/Spit Engine Mounts


Paul Lonsdale

Recommended Posts

Does anyone have any photos of a zetec engine mount setup in a spitfire?  The zetec engine has a cradle mount at the left hand end (what will now be the front) and I was going to bodge (sic) some brackets to go between that and some standard spitfire mounts on the turrets.  Any wise and wonderfulr words of advice for me???

P.S. I got my custome intake manifold for my motorbike throttle bodies back yesterday - sweet !!!

The turrets are effectively braced using the engine so it's important, as you intend, to keep the engine mounted on them.  I know others have taken mounting points direct to the chassis rails, but I believe they usually put in additional bracing to stiffen the turrets.

Good luck.
