   Are there any differences between the vtr/s engines and the standard engine mounts or they the same?
   
   what would be needed to be upgraded in order to fit a vt engine into a base model?
   
   In a saxo I mean, asking for somebody else...

   The 1.1 has different mounts to the VTS... not sure if the VTR/S are different though?

   the places are the same, i think the VTR/VTS use a hydraulic drivers side mount where as the base models don't, just checking the bible now.
