HI, the plate needs to be against a 016R bolt pattern, not lsx bolt pattern, and it will be upside down, if not for that a lot of the gt2 tranny holes would align. if you make a plate Ill buy it, good tips on the wrecked gt2s, once I get my computer up properly again ill contact you

You also need to have the tranny modified to run in a 'flipped' position. Otherwise it will be the fastest 951 in the history of the Universe.....in reverse with 6 speeds. 
I've already had that done to mine at California Motorsports. They modify the oil cooler too.
...looking at those pics from the wreckers always sends a bit of a shiver up my spine....

douglas valley wanted 4250gbp + vat + delivery.. I had an offer for 4000 euros for a 996 turbo unit, so about the same if you swap diff etc. -1000gbp would be much nicer on my budget 
with the USD as it was this summer... you could almost get a new one for that. :|

When I buy salvage vehicles I use the above to get quotes for parts before I bid on a car at auction so I get an idea of what a completed project will cost. Simply enter the parts your after and emails are distributed to all the registered salvage yards who then contact you back via email or phone and then you simply go with the cheapest
www.s-w-s.co.uk are currently breaking a red 996 GT2 but I have never dealt with them before.
