Engine mounting torque
#7
I use an ordinary nut, brazed onto another on rear engine mountings to make them easier to do up and undo, a la 750 Companion, page 111. They're secured with a plain washer and split washer. 

This applies to the solid mounted engine, early chassis which seems to rely on the stiffening action of the engine to brace the chassis.

Later, rubber mounted varieties usually have a split pinned bolt at the back, stud at the front or a substitute nylock as they are not done up very tight at all.
