ok so this is probably a stupid question but I took my engine and trans out, gonna rebuild both. I saw that it didnt have a transmission block plate on it. I am gonna order one but I just gotta ask, where does it bolt to? Does it bolt to the behind the flywheel and then the bellhousing to that?? any input is most appreciated, thank you

 

lol, that thin little sheetmetal guy ?

Yea, we put the trans on our motor, only to realize the plate had to go on before the flywheel lol.

 

yeah thats the guy im talkin bout... my stang didnt have one and I drove it 200 miles home from the guy i bought it from, thank god nothin kicked up in there. So it goes directly to the block, then flywheel etc...

 

Yes, plate, then flywheel, then the rest. If you look at my build thread, youll see me post pics saying yay trans is on the motor, no worries I'll put the plate on later. Then youll see everyone say, no you won't put it on later because it has to go on first, then you see me go #%@%%#@%%%%%$$$#@%#@%%#@%@# and then I post a pic with it on lol.....I was pissed

 

it just kinda goes in there too... doesnt bolt on

 

it centers itself on the dowl pins on the block

 

ahh excellent, I apreciate all your help guys... it was kind of a mystery to me.. thanks again!!

 

Can you post a link to your "build thread" I really would like to see how this goes together. Been trying to search every post you have on this forum and cannot seem to locate the specific thread your are referring to. Your help is greatly appreciated.

Easy on bumping up these real old threads. You're new so not to big of a deal, I cant send you private messages which is odd so I'll just post it here.
