  2. Hi TOM-TOM. As far as I am concerned a pancake engine is a suitcase engine, but from what I've read in your post you're changing from a type4 1700 to a type1 1600.

    By engine mounts what do you mean? The cross bar? The rubber mounts at each end? Or something completely different? :)
     
  3. ive managed to find them and a suitcase is the type 1 and 2 engine and a pancake is a type 4 engine apparently but yeh they were the mnounts for either side of the engine bar but alan scholfield started making them a month ago so i ordered them woo so ill be at the shows soon :) thanks anyway gingers !
