It's been a while since I've been on here - hope everyone is well! I'm struggling to find an engine mount the correct size for my current project!

Would someone be able to measure an E30 325 engine mount rubber for me please, dimension and height etc.

This is the type.......

Damn damn damn damn! I need closer to 60mm, the range rover ones I have at the moment are 40mm!

Cheers though guys, if anyone can think of any taller mounts let me know! :)

They look promising! Any idea what the sizes are? I think std capri ones are 50mm so I'm sure I could shim it out another 10mm
