id say loads, but that was because the alt was against the chasis leg. i havent drove it since fitted the driver side mount. will test it later tonight. its a lot more solid in the bay. although all 3 rubber mounts that i took off were absolutely shafted anyway so that wouldnt have been helping to begin with.

Cheers Championship You mean your working on the corsa rather than watching the 6 pointer?

i reckon that has the desired effect for sure
rick, its in the lower hole on the metal mount.
edit, have moved bottom of bumper under intercooler where its supposed to be. it wasnt bolted up when i took that just incase anyone mentions it    
oh and face fit turbo to manifold, not blowing now so thats cool. sadly the lambda probe has died. its throwing up every fault code imaginable. bloody innovate.

liverpool to finish 3rd. id love that. be so so so funny. man u deserve the title over you scousers anyway. chelsea easy deserve 2nd place. liverpool, another pathetic season for some fans that think their team are far better than they are. plus you have a girl playing up front.
you love the toon really rick and you know it.

You have built a 500bhp biscuit tin and yet the only update you can post is that you painted your towing eye?
You have to much time on your hands Mr. Barnes. Cool Crail pics though

gear linkage issues andrew. possibly caused by excessive wear in the bushes. so ive ordered some nylon ones. basically the linkage now hits the steering rack. which its never done in the 4 years or so its been a blower engine. so not sure why, but thats what its looking like is the issue. so had no reverse, and no 1st gear.
you ken that bit your supposed to bend straight like back in the nova days, well it appears ive never done that. so i will take linkage off tomorrow ready for its new bushes and hammer that bit straight. so then it wont hit steering rack. winner.
