The plan to homeroom the build progress of my Ecotec/Anglia was brilliant, except for one small detail ...

You have to be a member of the Ecotec Engine forum to see the updates.

Oh no, Mr. Bill ...

Maybe I will have to start my own website or something. Don't ya love it when the plan comes together !

Attached is Part 1 of my Motor Mount Fab and Install - Text only. I am working on an easy way to attach the pictures.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------]
I completed the fabrication and installation of the Motor Mount (Intake Manifold side).

The attached pictures (1-5 here, remaining pics in new post) show the details:

Drill and tap 2 upper motor mount holes from 8 to 10 mm to length of bolt.
Drill and tap lower left and upper right adapter bracket holes to same depth as upper motor mount holes above. Shorten bolts to this length. Alternately, you could just keep drilling - NOT ...

Purchase a piece of 1/4 inch 304 stainless steel. At least, that is what the metal store told me it was. I secretly think they sold me tank armor plating and are still laughing at the thought of me working it.

Design a super detailed template of the adapter bracket.

Use super template to outline bracket on piece of stainless.
