If this is the job I think it is.
There is a thread by Jim Shearen explaining how to do this job so do a search.
Jim S worked it all out but never got around to doing the job.

I have done this job and Jim S instuctions are pretty good.
You will need to machine the front case to fit the larger CW and front bearing.
I have a cad dwg of the 4mm spacer plate between bell housing and main case.
I also put the strengthing plate in at the rear housing.

It is not a small job, it is a marathon and I spent about 30hrs including working out PCD for the cad dwgs(spacer plates).
If you want the drawing let me now.

Good luck
