    That's a BIG one.

    Found this on SRS.

    Do you think the green top mounts could cope

        That's...ridiculous.

        Personally, looking at that makes me glad of the relative simplicity and small size of the 5 pot.

              That gives an idea for a van project.

              Would it be possible to "RS6" my transporter?

                Not much point in having a van though if the engine takes up all the back!

                      Those are without a doubt the biggest engine mounts i have ever seen, looks like its out of a truck.
