1.6 engine mounts
« on: April 11, 2005, 10:58:36 AM »
What engine mounts do I need to use to put the 1.6 in a Sammy?

Can I use the original ones in the Sammy?

Can I cut the ones out of the donor vehicle and weld them to the Sammy frame?

Is it best to get the mounts from a manufacturer (i.e. Petroworks)?

HELP!!!!!

I have not done this before and want to know all that I can before I run into any problems.

I have the engine out of the donor vehicle and am getting ready to clean it up for the install.

Do you think that I will have to change the oil pan if I have already put the Calmini Shackle reverse on, it is lifted 2 inches above stock height.  I think that I am going to get the Rocky Road adapter plate and engine mount relocators?

To be honest, I also have the Calmini SR ( 3" on mine ) but didn't check if the oilpanchange was really needed, just went ahead and did it anyway.

When we did my Sammi, i beleive the pass. side mount can be reused from the Sammi and you can combine the motor end from the donor car w/the Zuk end of the Sammi mount on the driver side.  If you have access to a welder that is.  I'll post some pics if I get the chance, but it might be a while, the LawDog is over at RealRedSammi's house with a bum clutch right now.
