1275 Ital engine with BW65 transplant

I've got an Ital A+ engine and intend mating it to a BW65 autobox.
I've a copy of the Owen Burton conversions details and see that the engine needs dropping and moving forward to gain clearance.
The details state that modified engine mounts are avialable but I cann't find them listed by any of the common suppliers.

Anyone know if they are still made or is it a case of modifying a pair myself ?

Thanks.

Paul Humphries.

Hi Paul all of Owen Burton stuff was marketed by the Bath centre after Owen Burton stopped trading directly.

Who appear to be going into manufacture only, but all parts should be available from ESM who are taking over the supply side of things, and they still list the manual.
