Today I took a run down to a mates workshop and picked up my TD42 radiator he sold me after upgrading, he also still had his old bell housing form the TB42 and he mentioned that he thought that the only difference between the TD & TB was the third hole in the casting for the starter motor, but wasn’t sure, however if I wanted to take the bell housing away with me to have a look at and modify it myself if possible, I could have it for nothing.

Well I figured what the hell, I may as well offer it up to the sandwich plate on the TD42 and have a look. So I took it away and had a bit of a measure up, unfortunately the TB42 housing is a different size starter casting as the sandwich plate holes for the starter were way off as was the size of the hole in the housing for the starter motor. I will start looking around for one I guess.
