Adding the head steady from the thermostat housing to the bulkhead is a good idea. I have also added steadies from the speedo end of the gearbox and the flywheel housing, these go rearward and bolt to the subframe.

Phil, how have you attatched the thermostat one to the car, bearing in mind the crossmember where it normally bolts has been removed to get the turbo in.. |

When I installed my top mount, I had to cut it down to clear the turbo box, it used 1 of the standard LHD bolt holes, I just drilled 3 more, all of which are still accessible from underneath where the LHD pedal box goes. Would love to send pics but my engine bay is rather full, don't know if I could get the camera in to the area. Speedster turbo under construction |

By the way, I also have the mount on the flywheel end and a front mount going to the subframe on the flywheel end. Engine moves NOWHERE! Speedster turbo under construction |
