Default Engine /Gearbox mounts

Just a quick update .Pictures and more detail to follow.
Gearbox mount ,tried this 1st (should have done engine 1st!)
Was a pig to fit ,wouldn't line up ,so left bolts for crossmember loose.
Today I started engine mounts .
The rubber mounts were sheared and while trying to replace I could see the holes were at least 1 inch to the right along with the whole engine !!!
Hours of struggle ensued trying to reposition the engine .
Eventually (after many ,many expletives) I had no option but to kick the 3 ton jack supporting the engine and it seemed to do the trick. More to follow.
Bob.
