Bought a wheel cutter today. Both for the tranmission notching and for putting in the Carrera Oil tank i bought last week.

Found out that there are two notches i need to cut. One for the TDC sensor on top, and one for the speed sensor at 2 o'clock. Also found out that if the speed sensor isn't installed with 0.8mm clearance from the flywheel, the car won't run. Nice little detail to know about before assembling the sucker.

Notched the TDC sensor opening, then moved over to the oil cooler attachment. Since the mounting screw distance matched the old tank, i built a temp late out of cardboard, attached it to the mounting points and went to work with the wheel cutter. Sure a torch would be cleaner, but I'm not that hardcore yet and this is inside the engine bay, after all.
