Car is now back on axle stands to inspect the clearance issues further.

 

With the very appreciated help from Jody, new uprated gearbox mount and adjustable engine steady now fitted.

 

I now have around 15-20mm of clearance now. A lot better but still not as much as i want. The main engine mount is now removed and these bushes are also worn. Also the standard mount i have is slightly offset towards the bulkhead. I have decided to buy the Elise parts uprated mount (not the vibratecknik one though). This mount sits more central and should in theory bring my engine back a bit further. I imitated where this mount should position my engine and this should give me the clearance needed. (hopefully).

 

Once this is fitted i need to secure the lower coolant pipe to the bulkhead with a more permanent method. (Jody has come up with a great idea here).

 

Thanks

 

Alan
