Well, it fits. Jesel back plate retained with locating pins (Cerakote on the locating pin portion was a bad idea!): ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/zLVRCe4.jpg) Then the motor plate: ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/ia68q1I.jpg) This is the belt cover/water pump back plate/cam sensor mount: ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/4jmwwT8.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/KZYtcmW.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/Eul75W8.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/S4iRRoU.jpg)

Looks awesome. I can only imagine the time and money out into that deal.

They are stainless fasteners. I say that because you will have bad galvanic corrosion from the dissimilar metals, You may want to stick with a chrome-moly, I would hate to see such nice work go to [censored] on account of the fasteners. It will be serious issue and it will not take long, Also consider a Sacrificial Anode to save parts also. Nice work for sure!

Nice work for sure! my thoughts as well. even using hi-temp anti-seize, galvanic corrosion will still be somewhat of an issue. as stated above, a sacrificial anode is a MUST. EXCELLENT machine work, to be proud of !
