LDV V8 4HP22 - any idea on the spacers/shims??

[Mystery Machine]

I picked up a 4HP22 today from Trev (many thanks Dude, it was great to meet you ) and it comes complete with all the spacers & shims needed to fit it to the V8 block.

I haven't had chance to have a really close look yet, and hope it'll all make sense once it's all laid out (currently a box of metal bits) but does anybody know roughly what order everything fits with regards to the spacers/shims?

I'll post a photo up in a minute if that helps anyone, but if someone has an idea of what goes where, I'd be VERY grateful because it'll probably save me a lot of time trying things in different orders/places.

Many thanks,

Bruce.

Here is a photo I've just taken of the various parts. If anyone has any idea what goes where I'd be VERY grateful.

Obviously there is the flex plate on the top left then working clockwise from there:

(1) Large adaptor plate/shim that looks like it bolts between the flex plate and torque converter

(2) THICK spacer with a small shaft on one side

(3) Small shim

(4) Spacer/adapter

(5) Medium shiim

(LINK to bigger photo)

If anyone has any ideas on this it'll probably save me a lot of time messing around trying out different combos.

Many thanks,

Bruce.

In this order 3 then 4 with the correct small cap head bolts, then flex plate- 2- 1-5 have some long 3/8? bolts going through them john

Many thanks John,

I think that's going to save me a good few hours of playing around with it all in different combinations.

I'll let you know how I get on?

Cheers,

Bruce.

Note that item 3 is available in different thicknesses, and ideally you should fit it all up, measure the clearance, and fit the right thickness of shim.

also if you have or had a manual gearbox on the engine you will need to remove the spigot bush in the end of the crank ...other wise the tip of the boss (item 2 ) wont fit
