The engine mounts arnt a "problem", its all minor problems you can overcome, altho im suprised your top mount " bolts right up" because both ive seen needed modding, but it all depends what vehicle its from, as they all have different designs / castings.
I just dont personllly see the point in the 2.2 over the 2.0 Its the same head between engines, but the 2.0 is conventional dw10, everything is just the same lines up, no farce with water flanges and stuff. the 2.2 was a fail that got sacked off instantly...
From a tuning point of view, the 2.0 8V dw10 is where its at, the heads are far better...now that im going CR again, im seriously looking at using an 8V motor again, but will likely stick with what I have just to be interesting. But you have to do hours of work to the 16v head just to make it flow like the 8v ehad does stock.
You have to remember the 16v heads are nothing to do with performance from factory, its all to aid emissions..like everything is these days on modern diesels
