Yes, the plate is almost ready. It was hard to get all the holes in the right place. In fact only a few were right.
Already had 4 holes welded up before, and today it looked like I have to weld up some more.

But the bright side is, that today, the fitting bushes (or how dou you call them, bushes that put the tranny in exact the right place) from the MB pattern AND from the BMW pattern, are in exact the right place.

Made various tools etc on my turning lathe, to get the bushes in the right place, but now thats OK. This way the center of the BMW 'box is in exact the same place as the center of the M119 engine.

Now its just some holes welding up, and then bore them again in the right place.
Bit difficult to explain.

Anyway: when im done you'll hear it, and to save yourself a lot of work when you use a BMW 6 speed box: I can make a mole probably when im done.
