Latest updates:
Been offline for a while cause of work and life in general.
I did get a hold of a second LI150 S2 case that is in good condition with no cracks. My escape plan is to rebuild my TV engine in that case. My plan is still original with minor upgrades.
I plan to get a 116 crankshaft with GP cone to suit a modern GP 12v electronic ignition. I will try to keep the original cabling and connect the new cdi and regulator. My TV is of an early model (1962) so I assume having a 4 pole DC 6v ignition (w/ battery). I’m sticking to DC to be able to run led lights and uprated horn.

Bought a pair of mounts from Scooter Restorations. Tried to fit them to the case today with no luck.
I heated the casing where the mounts go and tried to fit them with the correct lambretta tool.
The mounts are a 3 hole version and I read in stickys tha the correct position is one hole at 6 o’clock and the remaining pointing forward.
They didn’t move at all. Stuck tight and no movement at all.
Didn’t whammy to force them through in case of damage to the casing.
What am I doing wrong here?

You could try leaving the mounts in the fridge overnight, and heat the lugs where they fit. Even with the correct tool, there is some resistance when fitting them. Make sure there is no crud/oxidation/dirt in the lugs where they fit. If they are still really tight, then a light rubbing with fine emery cloth may help ease them in.
Compact Toolbox Flywheel Holder
some engine mounts are rounded on the inner edge and some MUST be filed / chamfered at the edges that the very inner edge (2mm).
otherwise they stuck.
otherwise they stuck.
Success!
Success! The problem first time around was that I didn’t heat the casing up enough to drive the silent blocks through!
I also succeeded in adding the gear selector arm. It’s the old version, and quite worn but tight. I loose the adjustment gain anyhow cause the selector arm only goes on one way only. Will see if I have to change this one further on.
