Ya see..... i thought that to Bill, so when mine went south i went to a junk yard and scored one off a 94 and it mikes the exact same as my 93 did.

if anyone has had a different experence please speek up., cause i'm wondering if they had the year wrong on the one i bought.

I bought one for from a member here that was for a second gen and it was half again thicker than the one I had stock. Is there any chance that someone already put a second gen plate in yours?

mikeorlock

i have no idea but its pretty thin less than an 1/8. if i get one from a second gen and its twice as thick will the bell housing sit flush with tho motor is that a problem?

Onemoparnut

It fits fine.

I guess it's possible.

I will find my broken one and put some calipers on it.

I would just like to know for shure what i have.
