Also, don't foget to PM a mod if it turns into a group by. Easiest thing would probably be to just sell them individually to avoid that...

I am definetly interested in purchasing a plate for my AU.
I am about 99% sure that the AU clutch cable position on the firewall is the same as the E Series. Can anyone confirm this?

The sad part is that back in the early 90's, you could buy the X Series clutch mount for under $10. If you got one now, and put a reinforcing plate underneath it I dare say youd be in a pretty good way.
