Bingo. You have to shorten the clutch-basket studs to be flush with the clutch-basket in the process of the conversion. I milled them down, but I hacksawing them to the approximate length and then filing them down to length should be absolutely doable. Just use a straight edge (or at least some straight bar) to make sure you get them all the same length.

What did you make your spacers/alignment plates out of? Looks like a sliced up cylinder. Never said your solution wouldn't work, I just pointed out, it's the slightly "hairy chested" solution.   (Goes to show, there's a few other approaches possible as well and I am absolutely overthinking the issue.)

P.S.: Have a look at my blog and you'll see what I mean... I went all the way with fixtures etc. and honestly I am not sure my final outcome is that much better than yours.

hello Greg,

I have read your blog, interesting, certainly from the chain tensioner, Can I put the full gearbox of the BT1100 into the TR1 case, according to you 3 to 5% longer, with the changes from 1000cc to 1100cc this can not be a problem I think, in you blog I read nothing about it, do you have photos or can you help me with that?

hello Greg,
Ok I found it , thx

do you know of the camshafts of the BT1100, XV1000 and XV920 are alle the same ??

Hello Greg,

I have read in the post of Ali ( BT-Motor wird zum TR-Motor) that he had a broken gear, with a BT1100 gearbox in a TR1 engine, to which Sepp answersie Schaltkulisse verwende ich immer von den alten Motoren, die von der BT funktioniert da meiner Ansicht nach nicht!
S.  Do you know what he means by that?
