M@tt 77 Posted February 4, 2008 (edited) Found out at the weekend (thanks to returnofjim) that the metal rear engine mount on my XM lump is too big for the 205 driveshafts. The hole for the intermediate bearing is about a cm too big. Can anyone confirm that a mount off a 1.6 or 1.9 XU9 block will fit ok instead. I haven't got access to Servicebox at work(firewall blocks the pics somehow :S) so can't check the bolt hole patterns to compare Cheers Edited February 4, 2008 by M@tt Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
