Making your own ist straight forward

I had the bolts from the bell housing ( subaru ) I machined the heads of the bolts off to a sharp point , all the bolts to the same lenth .These screwed into the subaru motor sharp end pointing out .

I found a peice of bright chrome shaft ( strut from a super bug ) machined a spigot on one end the size of the input shaft on the subi crank shaft .
Placed this end into my subaru motor .

I then got my adapter plate ( ally ) and drilled a hole in the center the od of the shaft ( firm fit )
Placed the ally plate on the shaft and slid it down so the plate was sitting on the sharp pionts of my ( cut down bolts )

Then with some one holding the motor & the ally plate I then got a rubber hammer and gave the plate a tap on the position of the bolts .

removed the plate and had my bolt centers marked for a subaru motor .

I them machined the spigot out for the vw gear box on my ally plate fitted that to the vw gear box and marked those holes with a pointed rod going through the vw box on to the ally plate .

how did it fit :cool:
