Good idea ! Plus makes dropping the engine and box in so much easier !

Yes, I would love to, but it's not going to happen, I'm afraid
![]() All "dirty" work needs to be done before the sandblasting and welding whole side on is a really dirty job. Nothing I would like to do with the engine in. It would be perhaps possible on the riveted carrier, but can't imagine it one the welded one.

The welding shouldn't really be dirty matey if it's done right... The cleaning down with grinder and paddle wheel will make dust a plenty, but all that will vacuum out of the hull
