Okay, here's the deal. I pulled my A4LD yesterday at my buddy's shop (lift and air ) and we were getting ready to install the T5 when we realized that the starter index plate (the plate that goes between the bellhousing and block) isn't the right one. It fits on most of the holes, but there are two near the top that don't have corresponding holes on the bell, and a tab on the driver side bottom that doesn't correspond either. Also, the indentation at the very bottom doesn't fit the one in the block - the plate won't fit flush. I'd post pictures, but my DSL modem decided to take a **** on me Friday night and I'm posting this from the libary. So my question is twofold - what plate do I likely have? And, does anyone have a plate they could overnight to me? I will pay for the shipping and a reasonable price for the plate, but I need to have it ASAP because my car is sitting tranny-less at the VW dealership and I'm driving my family's 220K mile '85 Accord (very gingerly). Since I have no way to respond to PM's or emails until hopefully tomorrow, if you have any input or have a plate that will DEFINITELY fit a '92 T5 cable bellhousing to a '92 n/a 2.3 block, please call me on my cell at *edited* . Thanks!!!
