Anyone used the P6 engine mounting brackets on a V8 conversion?

I tried to test fit my engine last weekend with the P6 brackets to no avail Sad

They wont fit, you need the Clive Wheatley ones or the OE V8 conversion ones, though these sit the engine up higher giving potential bonnet clearance issues depending on what intake setup you adopt
