The starter fits nice and snug, now..

Ran out of time today, still need to check starter pinion depth. Waiting on correct flywheel hardware for that, got some random bolts in there now with washers to adjust depth.

But all looking good so far, still much to do.

Nice work sir! Glad the weather worked in your favor today. Tonight we are expecting snow piling up into tomorrow. I pulled my carb to begin that project somewhere warm but well ventilated :-) Eagerly awaiting more progress as you make it!

The crank adapter I'm using omits 6 of the 12 stock flywheel bolts, and It's a P.I.T.A. To clock the adapter to the crank and bolt up. So i was thinking of modifing 3 unused mbz flybolts to use as alignment pegs. Might make it easier during the next few on n off’s.

Ok, I think I've successfully uploaded pics for the build so far.

Got some hardware today, stockish (MRGasket) AMC flywheel bolts

Gonna try to modify mbz bolts to make alignment pegs this weekend and see if I can get the starter to spin the motor.

Need to go through the Mercedes diagrams and figure what needs to be wired where.

Might even get it fired up........

Time to start sourcing t18 parts, probably need at least input/ needle bearings and seal kit.

I dunno if I'd use those washers on a flywheel. Are they stock?

Ya, love the ginger beer. Bundaberg and Bruce-coast are probably my favorites the former being more readily available though. I haven't seen the one you mentioned, but I'll give it a try if I find it. Thanks.

Didn't get much done today despite the clear weather, what little I did manage to get done happened in the last half hour of daylight.
Was able to get the flywheel bolted up successfully/sort of.. the new hardware I got is still too long, so I've yet to sort that out. But the alignment peg thing work pretty well though, a lot easier than trying to clock rotation and bolt up. Did not need 3, one worked just fine.

Got a clutch master yesterday, IH truck type. Bolts up for the most part, needed a little trimming to fit the booster. Still a prettty tight fit, not exactly sure how much material can be removed so ill have to try to adjust the booster mount to gain some additional clearance.

Why not use a YJ master and a hydraulic slave for the clutch??

It's a bolt on more or less. Hydraulic clutch was available for this year, so I'd like to use the provision.
