That being said the savage yard type websites should give the choice of compatible engine year models, which should be much easier to find the answer to your question.

Thanks for the info. I'll call BOW in NH as they are who I normally use for used motors and transmissions. Sometimes they don't want to do any cross reference for you though. We had a same year/model where the flex plate was different... It didn't get noticed or swapped before install (shame on me) and it didn't fit so it got done twice. Trying to avoid that kind of thing for sure.
