The rubber is moulded around the metalwork when the mount is made, no way of making it removable. And as Chris said, it wasn’t possible to use the Ford mount unmodified on the CVH The Quantum Mk2 Saloon was originally based on a Mk1 Fiesta with the crossflow engine and i believe it’s mounting did fit without modification. Unfortunately when they switched to the Mk2 Fiesta the CVH mounting didn’t.
Are you sure the top mount needs replacing, they seem to last a lot better than the gearbox mounts, maybe it’s something you can do later ? I have to say when i’m doing modifications on my Quantums i always try to modify parts that won’t need replacing at some point but not always feasible, like this engine mount.

More time taking work for a car needed for work next week. Someone needs to change this design as the mounts are hard to come by and the idea of them needing such modification when so rare seems silly. I amazed it was so poorly designed that the rubber inserts where not removable once the mount was modded for longevity. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: 'Paul S Quantum' via Quantum Owners Group <quantumowners@googlegroups.com> Sent: 23 April 2023 20:22 To: quantumowners@googlegroups.com <quantumowners@googlegroups.com> Subject: RE: [Quantum Owners] Engine mount Timing side No the rubber parts do not remove normally. The top upper engine mount require a couple of modifications. It requires one of the tabs cutting off and a small extension welding onto the bottom of the mount so the lower mounting hole is moved onto the welded extension piece. The mounts were normally exchanged by QSC when the kit was bought but the change is not that big even if you need to pay someone to modify the mount for you. Best using your original as a template.

I've got two new gearbox ends sorted but the main mount is modded compared to the xr2 according to Sb. Do the rubber Interbals come out of standard mounts to fit into the modded units?
