As mentioned on the chatbox im experimenting with a custom engine mount for the XUD engine. I have a baker BM mount on my DT at the moment and the car vibrates like buggery. So... im looking for a compromise between vibration and performance as we know the standard bottom mount can detiorate to a stage where it no longer controls engine movement.
What i have done is filled a brand new pattern mount part with a 2 part epoxy rubber. This fills all of the dead space the mount has. I also then intend to mount it with the large buffers at 90 degrees to the engine to further help the mount.
Hopefuly will get this fitted this week so i can test it

And a picture of the Rallye slaving the DT to get it moved off the lawn :-
