I ran across a web site once where this guy made front motor plates that fit between the timing cover and the block, for FORD motors. I think someone on here posted that site. Does this ring a bell with anyone? I searched the site and came up with zilch.

Try Competition Engineering and S&W Race Cars for starters. Both offer those types of motor plates. I don't like that style personally but that's just me I guess.

For that type of motor plate to work properly, the timing cover should be milled the thickness of the plate.
