Hi.

I've got a 12v corsa b and I'm fittin an XE in to it. The problem I have is that the N/S/F mount doesn't line up to the gearbox mount when the other two mounts are fitted. Is there something that I haven't done correctly as I took the engine out of a 8v corsa b that I fitted it to and didn't seem to have any problems when puttin it in the 8v. I've bought and fitted the chassis mount that is required for the drivers side.

This Is really puzzling me and I don't know what to try next so any info or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!

I don't know how to post pics to show the problem so any help with that would be great too!!!

Thanks
Mitchell

I fitted the o/s/f mount first but there is about a 1.5" gap between the gearbox mount and the mount on the chassis leg.
