Just wondering, would I have a problem with the mounts once I fit my 2.3L T1 engine? The mounts are fairly new. Would I need one of those g/b straps?

Might be a good idea to go with a berg style intermediate mount and ditch the stock front mount completely. Also a lot of guys use bracing to stop the chassis forks from flexing under load, either using "kafer cup" style braces or a hanger bar at the end of the engine which ties into the bodywork.
