hi eliot
the first thing was to measure both engine and box to get the plate correctly placed.The plate was then made to fit the engine mounting holes and fitted to the locating pins.always in the correct place now.the geabox convertor was removed and i fitted a machined sleeve to the pump shaft with a end piece pressed into the end to match the hole in the engine crank.
this then makes the box fit correct to the engine.i then leveled off the engine and box.i had also to make some gearbox pins that had a small hole drilled in them to mark there position on the spacer plate.the mounting holes on the plate were drilled with a 7/16 drill to centre the holes b 4 drilling them for a 10mm thread.now the outside is getting cut off to make a neat job.
easy as that....i wish.........lol
