Um, folks, I was not so appalled by the picture of the bellhousing window,
because my '82 1800cc Subaru had a nicely molded bellhousing window just
like that, with the timing marks underneath. (okay, it had smoother edges)
You also could use a screwdriver to turn the engine using the flywheel teeth
thru this window. It had a nice little contoured rubber plug for it. Okay,
so maybe the boxer style (flat 4) motor was never capable of cafe-spraying,
flywheel-shattering torque outbursts, but a better water-cooled flat 4 than
vw's attempt.
Roadster content: my trans tunnel is now completely covered in alum-faced
sound deadener, with alum-taped edges; looking "Apollo reflective".
When you 'bench bleed' a master/cyl, what do you put in the brake line
holes? Corks? Or nothing? Won't it just drain out the bottom?
