t4 engine mounts lifting engine 2" ????? anyone?

[sackmcgannay]

looking at raising the rear of my engine by about 2"... been told people who put a t4 in an early bay use engine mounts that when used with early support bar on early bay - holds the engine 2" higher than standard...
can anyone tell me a bit more about this??

thanks

You also modifying the fuel tank and area underneath - a lot of work there

And the tinware so your engine doesn't overheat.

tinware - yes.....but would i have to modify the fuel tank and tray beneath if was only tilting
the gearbox (not raising the whole gearbox)...I havn't yet mocked it up but was going to raise engine mounts
2" and modify the gearbox mount to new angle?
