R/H engine mount.
Turbo Mini Forums

Hi there

I'm after some info/pics of how people connect a R/H engine steady.

Like the Miglia guys run. Just need to know were it mounts to upon the engine. E.g to the water pump or exhaust manifold.

Any info/comments welcomed

Si

I drill holes in everything..!

The 1 I use mounts on to all 3 theromstat studs and runs back and down towards where the master cylinders would go 4 a LH drive and mounts via a normal mini engine mount bolted 2 the firewall. Not pretty but works well. Hope that makes sense.

mine mimmicks the same as the drivers side one and goes onto one of the water pump bolts, then a bracket the same as the drivers side attaches it to the bulkhead.

Good advantages due to not having to take the steady off when removing the head etc.

I must agree with Iain. The one that mounts to the waterpump is much better than the thermostat type.

In the 13's at last!.. Just

i am using a thermostat style one on my N/a mini and it has reduced engine movment quite abit, got to say it was a pig to fit and even worse to remove, i like the idea of having it mounting somwhere else for when i come to turboing

I use the thermostat one and it uses 1 bolt of the exhaust manifold aswell.
