Re: Engine out
You have drilled the gear box out before putting it in?

Re: Engine out
Top holes need to be drilled out to 12.5mm (i think) and if you are using an adapter plate its worth pulling the bolt sleeves out of the bottom bolt holes before putting it in

Re: Engine out
Pretty sure its 12mm as thats the size of the drill bit you borrowed of me twiss. Although if you drill it at 12.5mm I dont think it would cause any problem infact the 0.5mm would probably help it for clearance.

Re: Engine out
I drilled a gearbox the other day with a 1/2" bit and its working great
Fortunately the previous occupant of my house left a box of imperial size drill bits in the garage!

Re: Engine out
Top two holes to 12mm.
I used a conversion plate but if i did it again i wouldn't bother. Just reverse the gearbox studs and use some threaded rod.
