I've managed to get myself really confused about the dust plates for my gearbox conversion:bored:

 

I've got two halves that came off with my auto and a full one (with the gasket running in a U shape) and I also have a full one that came with my manual box, which is identical to the one off the autobox.

 

It looks like the two halves go on the engine then the full plate goes over that and then the flywheel?

 

Is this right?

Notice the orientation of the 5 Speed engine plate in this picture. This obviously needs to go in behind the flywheel.

If you look at the gearbox brace brackets from the block, the holes should match up

Cheers mate. So I don't need the two half ones then?

The manual dust plate is the two half one, having looked, the plate in the pic goes on first and the second half( lower) on after, then the flywheel.

Cheers Groover. I think I've sorted it now. I used the half plates and didn't bother with the full one.
