Bronze Bush / Spigot Bearing Problem - Urgent

[Jimbob-Squarepants ©]

Hi all, I have been looking at the flywheel end of my crankshaft and realised theres no Bronze Bush fitted. The crank is part of a 120e 1500cc Pre Crossflow by the way.

 

I have a bronze bush in an old 997, but, the internal diameter is approx 17mm which is for the early 997cc gearbox input shaft. The 1200cc boxes use a smaller diameter input shaft of 15mm. What have you all done to sort this problem out? I was thinking of using the Bronze Bush out of the 997 crank, then drilling the hole out a bit more to fit a spigot bearing.

 

Any ideas please, I need to have this engine built in the next couple of days as my 1300 is spraying oil out of it's breathers and has left a lovely mess on the road

When I fitted the 2000E box to my 1500GT pre-cross flow I had the centre of the bronze bush machined out to take the spigot bearing what I bought from Burtons - all seems to work well.
