I'm sorry for my ignorance but what is a scatter sheild and where is it located?
It's a plate that is attached to the front of the bell housing between the clutch and engine. The idea is to protect you in the event that your clutch/flywheel explode at high RPMs (more common than you'd think).

actually it replaces the whole bellhousing. if a clutch/flywheel were to explode it would make the stock bellhousing turn into dangerous shards of metal that could go flying through your floor. i like my legs where they are so i picked one up a few weeks ago

Uh no....a shield is a shield, as i put in that link. You can/should also opt for the SFI approved bellhousing to go along with it, which is required at most race tracks after you reach a certain ET.
Here's a McLeod bell housing/plate combo, but they're not always used together. I used to have just the plate on my C4 combo.
Hes lucky he has his legs still.
