PS we had our machinist do the centering as well. We brought him the motor & transmission, with our adapter plate already cut. He mounted the motor to the plate, and the stub shaft to the lovejoy. It's probably the most finicky & critical part of the job, because you'll have vibration & bearing wear if it's not perfect.
