Looking for X2 spindle housing bolt hole dimensions

Hey Gang,
Was wondering if anyone could give me the bolt hole locations and hole diameters for the spindle housing.
Here's a pic of the replacement part from LMS.
Need to know the center to center for A and B and the Diameter for C.
I'll have to tear into mine soon enough but would like to have the parts ready to go instead of putting it back together to finish the 4 holes in the parts.
Thanks alot Hoss

Hi Hoss - I feel a bit nervous posting these numbers incase my measurements are out and I cause you to stuff up a part! Anyway, I have recently made a mounting plate for my X-2 head : I had A=88mm, B=44mm and C=M8 (i.e. 8mm) .

It seems to fit fine for me, but I have used 9mm diameter holes as I am just bolting M8's through to the tapped holes on my X-2 head.

I hope that helps, but if you use my numbers, you do so at your own risk!

Hi Hoss
Measuring the bolt hole pattern on the head (the mating part to the one pictured) I get A at 88mm, B at 45mm and the thread is M8.
cheers,
Rod

Thanks guys, really appreciate it.
Makes life easier.
Super secret X2 project can proceed now.
Those dimensions are what I was hoping, now i don't have to redraw the plans.
