Dear Grantura-specialists,

does anyone know where to get the engine mountings TVR took to mount the Kent-engine in the Grantura MK2a ? Please see the picture attached. The ones for the Cortina seem to be quite different.

thanks for your help
Chris

Thank you very much, of course they are Anglia. My engine is from a Cortina 1500 GT, hence I was looking for Cortina and later mounts.

Beware most Anglia mounts are sub-standard Chinese crap. Just bought some quality ones from these guys the other week

Russel, thanks for your advice. I was just wondering why there are different looks and prices for the same part.

No problem smile

Oh one thing though if thats your picture you posted above then mount is bolted upside down. If the rubber was to fail the metal will stop the engine falling. As yours are fitted there would be nothing to stop it falling on its sump if it was to break.
