Re: [HSS] 24 engine into 29, Doable?

Unknown

The '24 will sit in the right place no problem, and there should not be

anything out of place. The drive shaft will bolt right up, but I think the

'24 had the hand brake mounted on the gearbox lid (?), so you may want to

change the lid over. You could probably change the whole flywheel, clutch,

and transmission over, but you would have to fit a bush in the flywheel to

take place of the pilot bearing which is in the '29. Good luck,

Geoff.
