Now that ALL the grinding is done, after 5 test fits, and more grinding.....
I got to nestle the motor in - now a bit lower!
The driveline is more level too!!

I set the Mashima motor in a gooey bed of Ultra Black RTV automotive silicone.....
Oh, the thick paper was my method of flywheel clearance!!!
Now - its just got to sit around, until the silicone sets - about 24 hours.
(REGARDLESS of what the directions say!!! You will be applying the RTV much thicker than any typical automotive use!!)
