To replace bellhousing dowel pins or not?

Why don't you use offset dowel pins instead?

Thanks Larry,
I have thought about using the offset pins, but they are not a permanent fix for aligning the bellhousing, and I would be faced with trying to remove the existing pins which can be a real pig of a job unless you've got the right tools. So I've decided to go the welded bush route as recommended by Kirkham.

Thanks Grubby,
I agree, I think I have enough dowel pin engagement so will leave the existing pins in place.

Thanks
Stuart
