Hi,
I'm purchasing an '86 MZ21 (off CrispyFries on these forums) It is 75% through the r154 installation. Once completed i'm taking ownership.
The installation would have been well and truely completed However a few snags were hit along the way,
The whole lot was installed apart from the gearbox crossmember. When a post '88 ma70 gearbox crossmember was sourced it didn't line up correctly with the gearbox and the body. So another gearbox crossmember was found and sent down, however it ewnded up being the same as the first  Finally another diferent gearbox crossmeber was sent down, this looked more correct but still didn't work (I was guessing this one was off a w58)
Finally it was figured out that the diferent engine mounts and crossmember on the later models move the motor slightly forward which would allow the gearbox crossmember to line up correctly. Using the gearbox crossmember of the same aged car. However I'm not positive this will solve the problem, i was hoping people on here could confirm it
