Just done mine, not too hard a job, thanks for the guide.

Right having just finished doing the engine mounts on Racing 182's car, I thought I add a few extra notes Problem bolt Firstly who ever tightened the three bolts that hold the bracket to the block had done them up so tight one started to round off when removing and another did round off. This way a bit of a nightmare luckily my mate was at his workshop so we took it down there and after trying various methods to remove it what finally worked was. Weld a large washer with a 14mm hole on top of the nut, then build up some weld on top of the washer and nut, finally weld a large nut on top of this, allowing you to put a lot more torque through the bolt.

Wish we'd read this far into the thread hey Partridge!
