Hi Chaps,

Great advice - I heated up the area and sure enough the bolts came free.

Next thing is there are rubber mounts which attach the exhaust to the fuselage. I managed to get one free but the other has detached from the metal screw piece... hard to explain.

I taken a couple of photos of it. Anyone know what they are called so I can search for some from a UK supplier?

Thanks for all the help so far.

BTW - agree the engine mount doesn't look great but the metal arms go into a rubber back plate which is glued and screwed to the firewall (think that's what it's called). So it looks like I'm stuck with this set up!
