Default Capri V8 Help Please

Ok Chassis kit is in, Its a crs kit, I have engine mounts to suit v6 crossmember. My drama is that once the chassis kit is installed, The distance between the rails is now approx 4" narrower. Hence now the engine crossmember has no chance in hell of fitting......................

What is the normal fix for this ?. I can supply pics if needed

All you boys with v8s , if you wouldnt mind snappin off a few pics of the front end of ur cars concentrating on the front end/crossmember area. The kit itself sits very well.

First engineer inspection was today with go ahead on all planned mods. So

V8 INTO CAPRI = LEGAL IN VICTORIA

Cheers
Doc

Chassis kit requires you to use the require x-member.
I have a crs kit fitted in my track car.
email me at maxrnb70@hotmail.com for pics or if you are local to Melbourne, you can come and check out the car. Car is currently in storage and the motor is out.
Cheers Glenn
