The T28r (BB) can't be rebuilt. The core must be replaced.

The next few photos show trial fitting of the engine and gear box.
Also to measure for fabrication of engine mounts and gearbox mount.
( Also couldn't wait to get in the hole and see what it looked liked )

I just couldn't do that it's part of the fun aye plus the cost of the fitting kits, I'm trying to do as much as I can on my own. Want to engine as far back and as low as I can have it so that the weight is better and handles too.
