Spacer Plate ???

[sgarrelts01]

Not sure what exactly it is called, but its the plate between the engine an the bellhousing, what is the purpose for that. I sold my old 302 an forgot to take that off. Is that what the starter bolts too.

If i need it, what is it called so i can replace it.

You mean the block/back plate? Yea its kind of important for proper spacing for the starter etc. I think the Ford part # is D9ZZ-7007-A.
