Thanks for your offer, I'll take you up on that.

Started setting up the motor and box in the car today and working out what we're going to do for engine & trans mounts. The motor is on a steep angle but being dry sumped it won't be an issue.

Looking at the way the DET top mount exhaust manifold sits we'll more than likely abandon that and make a custom low mount one, for the sake of space and keeping the C.O.G. down. Could have lowered the engine down further but it just looked ridiculous, lowering the trans would mean the axles would be on a rather steep angle, as it is they're on slightly up hill. This is part of the reason they run EJ20's as they have a high crankshaft in relative terms.
