Default Engine mounts?

Hi, is there anyone who sells modified and preferably uprated engine mounts to allow me to fit my zetec turbo engine into my s2 escort rs turbo?

Cheers Jono.

you can use a cvh mount no problems..we did a zetec conversion in my mates rsi and just cut one of the holes off the mount and welded it on to suit zetec engine..held the engine no problems..not sure if it will last forever but this one lasted a good two years of abuse..

slightly off topic but does anyone have any info on what mount to use to fit rs2000 engine into a mk3 escort? this one is a bit more complicated than a zetec
