Pic heavy 2yr Build Gti6 road & track
Small update for today ..
Got cast alloy Base off Baz T who Mei / Welshpug knows & is a good friend of Miles ....it's to fit my cast alloy top mount Miles had spare
Needed a little few bits removing & smoothing & has gone off to be Nickle played the same as the top mount bit has Thumbs up

I'm sure Mei will know these are 1.8kgs inc top 1.9kg & you have to use a extra Cast Iron Alternator plate off a 205 Diesal ...& a rose jointed bar to tension the alternator belt ..

These 3 items weigh just under 2.00kgs together .....
The cast Iron top mount & base which has Alternator bracket in one piece weighs in at 8.5kgs ...THATS 6.5kgs lighter WOW Crazy
Plus it's neater & looks amazing ...bonus
That's a lot of weight off just with my Bonnet & engine Mount

Top bit Nickle plated two weeks ago

Bits removed so I can keep my Cambelt cover

Going in for Nickle plating today

Have to use 205 Diesal lower Altenator mount with is cast iron

But 6.5kgs lighter than standard all in one setup

Cast Alloy total lot inc cast iron Altenator bracket = just under 2kgs ...standard 6 setup 8.5kgs
