Raff, that's what I thought.
No, I don't have any extra fittings to try out.
At this point I'm leaning towards one of the types that I linked previously.

Well, it looks like my decision on what to do just got a lot easier.
I gotta call this evening from Gorski telling me he had a motor plate I could use if I needed it.
I owe you big time Rick
And fair warning.............
Expect more dumb questions that have probably been asked 1000 times once I get the plate and start working on getting it in

Bill, dont fret little buddy.... I have the milodon dual line kit in my car with 100% stock front suspension.
I do run a motor plate, but I use the stock passenger side motor mount as a limiter...
That oughta work just fine. I ran 1 limiter on my car with 1/4" plates front and rear until I put in the 572. Then I added one on the other side just to be sure the motor/trans weren't twisting.
I had the 1 limiter deal on the car for around 15 years with no drivetrain problems. Well, come to think of it, I did crack 1 Powerglide bellhousing after maybe 1500 passes. With the new motor and 2 limiters I broke 3 bellhousings this year.
If you do what Josh recommends I bet you'll be in hog heaven.

Here I thought one of the big advantages of the plate was getting rid of the stock motor mounts and gaining more room.
