2.25 motor plate

are there any newer motor plates that are compatible with the 2.25?

I'd really like to keep my original motor plates un modified b/c their finish is still fairly good.

If not, can you still run a stealth properly with only the 3 mounting points and the 4th screw shortened so that it doesnt go all the way through sort of like the 6 gear?

just leave the 4th spacer out and use a shorter screw with a nut between the case and plate.

and another reason added to want chris to make some motor plates for that stealth tranny.

unless he'd stamp them out of aluminum with the chassis brace like factory, it's a waste of time in my opinion.

original motor plates are not that hard to find.

I guess my answer shouldve been yes there is. Better suited for a graphite chassis or mid setup though.
