try and put a few washers in between the block and bracket where the TOP bolt goes threw.

This should tip the bracket down on the bottom side and pull the axle in closer to the engine.

Least in the picture, thats what it looks like it needs.

ah...just make sure that the axle is coming out straight and that the axle is hitting all the way around the seal and not just one side of it.

yeah, if i have any issues, the seal will tell me by leaking. I make a crayon rubbing of the mount on the engine an measured the difference in height between the two mounting bosses and milled it down... the guide pins fit perfectly.

IMO: i wont tell anyone to use washers, because the guide pins dont line-up

I just wanted everyone to know that Darktengu is "Da man". When others would have stayed inside in their nice warm homes; he came over when it was -13 with a wind chill of roughly -35 Shocked. I had a propane heater on full blast about three feet away from where we were working and it was still roughly 20 degrees. Plus the concrete floor was like laying on a block of ice.

correction

someone you know spent already too much cash in buying parts from down under and letting other peoples dealing with his money in USA
his car will never run and that statement alone is based on my 8 years of seeing peoples working on those cars

I thought you QUIT coming to this site. Wasn't there a post where you quoted that "I'm outta here, delete my account".

...but you're right. I would never prepay $5K to a middle man. I wouldn't go so far as to say that his car will never run, you should never say "it will never happen". You shouldn't be in a world where "nothing is possible" & condemn others plans UNTIL they give up.
