MG TD TF 1500 - gearbox chassis mount point

I am replacing the MGB engine with an original 1250 TF engine. The mounting plate for the gearbox on the chassis has been altered. I wondered if anyone could help me with the dimensions of the original chassis plate . I can't seem to find the dimensions anywhere and am stuck . Any help would be much appreciated

Here's a pic of the mount, sorry I don't have the dimensions. Blow it up for a better look. PJ

Good for you.

Are these dimensions available in the workshop manual for in the rear? I think there is a section on frame straightening.

I have a drawing of the gearbox mounting plate. I will search for it and send it to you. What is your email address and where are you in Alberta?

I have to replace a butchered gearbox mount x-member (TC gearbox fitted). Could I also possibly have a copy of the drawing, if you find it?.

Hi Ian ,
I sent the drawing to your email address. Would you please confirm that you got it. I am not very good at the procedure for sending attachments and want to be sure you got the drawing.
