These were Mark Fish's own design solid top mounts. He sold a few some years back. I have a set on my race car that have been on there since I bought it in 2013 and they're still good. Over engineered and excellent quality!

If that’s the same as the one I use the Clio is a snug fit! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

If it’s on top at that end it will almost certainly be the solenoid seal. Easy job and about £5 on eBay. Definitely try that first because the alternative is a much bigger job! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

You should be ok with 12.1 CR as long as it’s mapped properly, you use good quality rod and main bearings and ARP bolts. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yes that is possible. Gasket should sort it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yes, I just needed one as light as possible. The trophy one still needs a light fitting to it. Probably not much difference to be honest though Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’ve had 2 over the past few years. Wrapped rather than painted but the quality is certainly good enough for paint. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Good luck with this. I should imagine the Clio will be quite a bit lighter than the Pug. Unfortunately the jumping out of gear is almost certainly box related rather than mount. If you have the budget look to getting a diff fitted during the rebuild. That will be money we’ll spent. Sent from...

Aux belt is nothing to do with timing. That’s the cam belt. So you can easily remove or replace the aux belt. An easy job you can do at home. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

No, not really. If you have time you could drop them in to a jar of oil over night to let them fill with oil so when you start the engine for the first time they are oiled straight away but it’s not essential. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

There is no correct order other than keeping wear even in your particular engine by replacing them in the exact same slot. You should be fine just putting them back in any order unless they are all noticeably different due to wear in which case you’d be well advised to renew them. Good luck...

Have you got both pulleys loosened off? Make sure you can move them on the ends of the cams then once the tool is in tighten them both up with out them spinning. It’s tricky and may take 2 or 3 attempts but you should get there. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yes, there won’t be space for a feeler gauge but once timed up it should slide in and out relatively easily. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Be good to see some pictures! Very unlikely you’ll be too loud for track days but the 182 manifold is a good upgrade and you should find the cat will be a direct bolt on to your existing system. Good luck! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
