Hi,
The washers were on mine when I change my engine recently. The master
cylinder on mine is angled upwards away from the dizzy and is about 4"
clear. I assume that yours comes straight out (I think that is the way the
mk1 fiesta one was).

Subject: [Quantum Owners] engine in but a few concerns.....
right then folks
ive finally got the engine in (whaaayyy!!!!!!)
been wrestling it all day trying not to chip my freshly painted
chassis but its there.
a few questions have popped up in the process though
1. is it normal to have to put washers / spacers between the lower
bolt of the upper engine mount?
the old engine had a load of rusty washers here and I thought it was
just something necessary to fit the OHV engine into the 2+2 but it
would appear that the CVH needs this also, well it does on mine
anyway, ive made a slightly better job of it that the previous owner
by turning up a nice little stainless spacer to fill the gap, however
it still causes me to have doubts.
2. there is very little clearance between the brake master cylinder to
the distributor cap, about 10-15mm, I cant see any leads going to fit
there very well,
my dizzy has a black cap with straight connectors on it, was there an
option to get a cap with the lead ports at 90 degrees? or is there
some other way?
as ever cheers for any info.
