The cases are the worst part.
The “collar” is usually a press fit.
A couple of spot / tack welds will fix it, but reuse of an OG case is the way to go

OK - just saw this.
This is what I would get.
Yes people are going to say the “rigid construction” will transmit vibration (what they say about the rhino) but seriously, would you notice it?
I had the rhino and a Berg semi solid gearbox mount in my beetle and it was fine.
This one certainly does away with any chance of the collar spinning on the cradle

It’s the usual story,
“If you want a job done well, do it yourself….”
Nice work.
