Bleeding Brakes & Onto The Floor

[Landie71]

Well managed to get just shy of 3hrs in the garage today to had a bash at getting the engine to the right end of the car to start with. One thing lead to another & I ended up with this:

 

which became this:

 

....and then this:

 

All good I start to think! Then got the engine mounts fitted into place & found that the bell housing starter motor cover bit is touching the transmission tunnel side (not the best photo I'm afraid):

Done a bit of searching on here & I've found a few vague references to cutting the bell housing around the starter area to make it fit, but I can't anything substantial. Does anyone know if I've done something wrong or do I take the angry-grinder to the bell housing to trim a corner off?

 

Thanks in advance

Think I've just found the answer thanks to Shaft's build gallery :

 

Looks like it's coming out again or at least being pulled forward for a little for a bit of a diet curtsey of the angry grinder or one of his friends
