Hello,

It's important that you use the matching hardware for the later thinner flexplate.

The thicker flexplate had 2 pieces while the thinner flexplate has 3.

The thicker flexplate is sandwiched between the outer bolt support plate and a spacer with a protrusion for centering the flexplate that mounts on the back of the crankshaft.

The later flexplate has 3 pieces, a similar outer bolt support plate but is smaller and a spacer for the back of the crankshaft that doesn't have a centering protrusion but instead there is a separate bushing that slides into the pocket in the back of the crankshaft and it protrudes through the spacer to center the flexplate.
