Some of the other 'big flexplate' block plates will work, but the lower access cover bolt holes wont' align or simply are not there.
What happened to your original?
I have a stack of them out in the shed. Junkyards have gobs of em too. Nothing rare about them. Don't panic.

I need one bad man!

my flywheel weight demolished it, and this one was already bent, so if you have one that is not bent i need it

Man I've had my old one sitting around for months and I think I just finally got rid of it. I'll look around and see if it's here still by chance. You might try Ebay also. I got my T-5 one on there for like 10 bucks.

will a t-5 work on my AOD ? i guess it will if you say so, anyhow

Some of the later ones are made from aluminum and if warped will make contact with the weights.
You seriously don't have a major junk yard around? Not near a big city? There are millions of Crown Vics there with the engines on the ground and the parts laying in the trunk. You may need no tools at all.

I'll look at exactly what I have to spare.
