This I was told minimises stress from the crankcase as the chassis twists (under duress).

What does the team think.

Bob
My RNs have the front nearside and rear offside bolts fitted with an 1/8" washer under these engine feet ever since I found how much the chassis twists in use.
Dave,
Are you saying that statically there was clearance between engine mount and chassis at these points?
