Mine is a rail install with a Cover Ralph. I'll take a couple pictures Friday and post them for you to look at. It may be what you're looking for. RR

That's exactly what it is. A four point with the feet cut off it. I did the same thing with mine. I just couldn't bring myself to lay down the kind of cash they wanted for a cover.
Before cutting it down and polishing it up.

rwyyattb,
Here are the pics of my motor plates that you asked for:

Note in the above photo that the block dowels are in the block and integrated/used with the motor plate. The motor plate itself is essentially patterned after the 429/460 engine plate (goes between the block and C6 trans):

In regards to the flywheel cover, I don't have any straight ahead photos, but you know what they look like so use your imagination (with this overhead shot) as far as the install of the cover to the motor plate:

Ralph, those motor plates that Lakes made are pretty trick!!!The motor plates were on the boat when I purchased it. I do agree that they are rather nice, though.
