I Finally got my engine back last wednesday!!!! :D Yippie:D !!!

But When it came to fit all the bits and bobs (Alternater Bracket/Engine Mount) back on to the engine, that morspeed had taken off, there is only one bolt for the botton engine mount.

I have been to all the motor suppliers in Wrexham and FWB, Websters etc, but nobody has on that is the same.

So I just thought that I would ask if anyboby had one going spare?
