I did a test fit before I put the motor in...the plates only one way...the holes for the screws that mount em to the block are dished in. I turned them around to see how they sit on the block and the long end of the plate hit parts of the block and wouldn't sit flush. I tried each plate on both sides to make sure I put them on the correct sides. heres a pic of the plates...don't have a pic of em on the motor.
