inches (145mm) from the
firewall. Use a felt-tipped pen to mark the locations for the
engine mounting screws on the engine mount rails.
8. Remove the engine. Use a drill and 5/32-inch (4mm)
drill bit to drill the holes for the engine mounting hardware in
the engine mount rails.
We recommend removing the mounts
from the firewall and using a drill press
to drill the holes for best results.
9. Attach the engine to the engine mount using four
M4 x 30 machine screws, four M4 lock nuts and eight M4
washers. Place the washers between the head of the bolts
and engine mounting lugs, and between the mount rails and
nuts. Use a #2 Phillips screwdriver and 7mm nut driver to
tighten the hardware.
