    Well the tunnel is beaten and the 1J/R154 is in. Took a lot of loving with the Oxy and a reasonably sized hammer. This was all done to make sure that a brand new gearbox rubber will always fit. I scrubbed back all the sound deadning and gave it a spray with matt black. Looks the goods now. Damn, i should have taken photos.

    Wilbo did R154 into MZ10 - lots of swearing and heavy hammering - a porta-power jack might be useful but would require careful placement of both ends of the ram.

    Yep I went and bought a larger hammer

    It sure did help!

    Btw MZ10 auto xmember works perfect.
