Hi Guys,
Basically ive bought a 1986 T25 with a 1.9dg engine that was in pieces separated from the gearbox (someone had stripped it down years ago due to head gasket failure and not rebuilt)
I have now rebuilt the engine and its ready to go in however a lot of the fixings were missing and i have managed to source replacements online but the problem I have now is I cant seem to find the correct nuts and bolts for attaching the engine to the gearbox bell housing.
The engine has 2 studs already fitted at the bottom I assume these just push through the bell housing and then M10 size nuts secure on the bell housing side.
but what fixes at the top I assume a very long nut and bolt of some kind?
also what sort of bolts for bolting the moustache bar to the van?
sorry its a bit of a ridiculous question but i have googled for hours and cant find anything that's definite.
Thanks

Excellent thanks for your replies and thanks for the heads up about the load spreaders, I had no idea about those.
