<div style="color:black;font: 12pt Comic Sans MS, sans-serif;">Yes, but the challenge is determining determining where to drill (machine) the holes so that the transmission input shaft is correctly aligned with the pilot bushing with out pre-loading the pilot bushing. That is why the factory provided 2 special alignment bolts (dowel bolts), but they are not at the same location on the 100 engine backplate & the 6 Cyl. backplate

<div>I see that DW and AH Spares sell aluminum back plates to do the conversion. Can’t a 6 cylinder back plate be modified to work?
