Question Help on VR6 mountings

Hi Guys



As I have started stripping the broken motor of my Black
Found Piston 4 broken from detonation and all the broken pieces through the manifold and stuck in all the valves of all the other cylinders
Tyrbo also damaged

So to get to the Point As can be seen on the picture the motor was fitted not alligned and not happy with the mountings
I read that Dave was offering some Pictures on another thread I tried to send him a PM but do not know how to do it here
Dave if it possible to help or any one else with advice on what "STD" mountings from the other VDubs will help to get the cv`s more in line as it looks as if they are not at a good angle
The car has not done very much milage since the conversion by my Ex partners as they have gone through 4 motor failures
So I would really Apreciate all the Help of the Experts on the Site PLS

Pierre

well, it LOOKS ok on the surface.

you don't mention if the car is lowered, what transmission is run, the like.

i've done a few vr swaps in the mk4, and i've never had a fitment issue, everything bolts right up if you use late (96-99) mk3 or any year mk4 parts.
