Fitting a 540 into a TC5

I have seen a couple of guys running their TC5s in 540 and I was wondering how you managed to fit the motor into the car (I assume a dremel with a cutting disc is involved)???

You do not need a cutting disk as such. The small cylindrical sanding bit is the one that works best i have found. You do not need to remove much material and the cutting disk will leave sharp edges.
