Default Fitting 4x4 mounts to 205 block

Hi guys,

The 4x4 engine mounts for my Cortina project wont fit onto me 205 2wd block as the oil filter cooler is in the way. I'm assuming a oil filter cooler from a 4x4 cossie is different hence allowing the mounts to line up ok?

yes mate
the 4x4 uses a remote oil filter housing, that places the oil filter towards the raer of the block.
they sometimes pop up on ebay, or you could buy mocal remote filter housing that bolts onto inner wing/chassis etc

heres the bits you will need, the oil cooler on the 4x4 is mounted with a different central bolt assembly and has a big nut to attach the oil filter extender assembly, there is alos a few o-rings involved,........get the complete assembly if you can.
