i have a 1.6 d reg capri non pas and want to stick the v6 2.9 24v engine in and
not have pas.
what x-member do i need? im 99% certain i have a 2.8 one as mine looks similar/identical to;
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...sPageName=WDVW
i believe any capri x-member will fit all 3 mks. true or false?
i believe any capri non pasx-member will fit any non pas rack, and visa versa. true or false?
ive looked on a schimeter (essex v6 non pas) and the rubber engine mounts are the same distance apart, and at the same angle as the capri 1.6 x-member. ie a 3.0 pas xmember is wrong.
the pics are of;
1 - the capri x-member,
2 - the metal from the 24v engine to the rubber mount,
3 - the 2.9 rubber mounts (10pts if you guess the car its on)
4 - the metal from the 1.6 engine to the rubber mount (the 1.6 ones are smaller than the v6).
5 - the capri itself
do i actually need a new x-member, or do i just need a different version of pic #4?
and can some with hosting space pm me? ive a 217kb and 124kb pic.
ta.

the holes on the 24 mount make a triangle of 4.5, 4 and 2.5 inches. the engine has holees for 4 bolts.
the holes on the 1.6 mount are 6.5 or 7 cm apart from the one on the same axis.
