Can anyone tell me how thick the above mounts as used on many m52 convs are, ie how thick is the rubber? Also how long are the bolts that protrude from them ? I'm trying to see how much i can raise an engine ( not an M5 /2 actually a Nissan CA18DET) using these? Thanks

Iirc the M5 mounts used for M50/52 convs are 70mm tall, no idea on thread length though

Ive just ordered a set of range rover v8 mounts just to see how they compare to the m5 mounts, they were only£8 delivered so worth a look :)
