Re: Mount a xe in a mk2
I ended up hacking the centre out of a wccm and changing for round tube then lowering it to gain clearance. Moving rack mounts and lowering the inner tca mounts by same amount.. I'm on wet sump in a 105e,my engine sits perfectly level with a 5 speed on the back of it.

I just made my chassis mounts the right dimension to lift the sump clear of the rack.

Watch the height of the rack...you can end up with terrible bump steer issues, with a dry sump pan you shouldnt need to lower the rack much, i managed to keep it in the std position with a manta wet sump, i just mounted the engine with enough clearance.

has the channel at the bottom of the sump got a cut out in it to clear the rack, mine came off a circuit racer so I had to modify it.
