If it was a Tiger when you started, it will be a Tiger when you finish.
It doesn't make a lot of sense to me to leave "gaps & holes" when you've
gone this far to restore your "baby".
Make sure that any hole is not neeeded for something (important or

and off you go!!
ps. Could a PO have been mucking about the engine & trans at some point
in time? Was the car in a wreck?
