T 56 swap question

Wow, good suggestion. Would be very simple and effective...

Probably quite expensive too, and maybe a thinner plate will warp easier? Never thought of that to be honest, the floater plate is already quite thin, maybe 5mm/0.2".


Got another question specifically for a srt10 viper trans, when I disassembled the reverse idler gear located in the tailhousing there was only the gear on the shaft. Now when I check the manual, the tremec manual speaks of two thrust washers on in front and one in the back of the gear, the dodge exploded parts view speaks of a thrust washer behind and a snap ring in front of the idler gear, and the official dodge workshop manual speaks of only the thrust washer behind the idler gear? My question is wich one is correct?

Reverse gear idler is numbers 16 to 22 on below picture.
