Aren't, Type 1 shells have a different front mount (The one changed for F28). Its similar to the engine side mount.

I can give you an idea by this pic stolen from ebay

You can just about see the red bit of the mount, you wouldn't see that if it was type 2.
I would bring it up on EPC too but I'm not at home atm.

So before you go around calling people dicks, get your facts right.

aw06 is right. as in the picture what hes put up u can see the mount. type 2 u wont see. so the f28 mount on a type 2 will have the mounting holes to go in the rubber in the middle of the mount roughly. on a type 1 the f28 mount will have the holes right at the top to accomodate the rubber mount being higher up.
ive done 3873 conversions so know what im talking about

    Thank you.

    Unless you have converted/played with a 8v you wouldn't of had any encounter with the type 1 setup.
