Just wondering if Beeser got started on his project? Looks like he&I are doing the same set up

Does anyone have the dimensions for the AX15 or NV3550 bellhousing? I am looking to make my own adapter and this would help allot! If you have a CAD that would be amazing!

But , here is my Mercedes om617 into my 1994 wrangler ( not quite complete ; but getting there !! )

The adapter from JEEP flywheel to Mercedes crank with provision for Jeep Pilot Bushing!!

The engine to Bellhousing adapter ( which the machinist flipped over before milling and offset everything so my Dakota Bell would not work ) so I used the AX-15 Bell housing so as not to scrap the WHOLE PIECE and start over !!

Both adapters bolted to engine !!

And the tolerances are quite close but the 1/4 inch won't hurt anything !!

And the stock Jeeps clutch is now in place !!

Underside with the jeep starter in place and the dreaded part was clearancing the cooling fins about 1/8 of an inch ( I hated it but, it had to be done !!)

Starter issues
 
I can't get my start to catch the flywheel on the Diesel motor. I grind a lot of and can see a gap between engine and starter. New starter. Please help :(
