Its not uncommon, but its by no means usual. It should be safe enough.

Check if anybody near you in the club has one. If all else fails, I can ship you one from my stash.

I wonder if Omix-Ada has the same butchered flexplates.

I think I have one laying in my shop. It may be a HO plate, though. I'll have to look.

I'm in the middle of swapping mine to 5 speed. This thread made me go check the tone ring on my new fly wheel.

A pinched sensor or Ignition system wire between the back of the block and bell housing?
