It measures 245mm × 151mm × 62mm, weighs 1.91 kg, and comes finished in a matte black powder coat tested to ASTM B117 standards. The package includes all intended fasteners—M8 socket screws, hex bolts, and thick washers—so you can mount the plate and store the hardware on the plate until your next project.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does this plate fit my LS engine and carburetor patterns?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe plate is laser-cut to match LS Gen 3\/4 valley cover bolt locations and common SBC, BBC, and Ford carburetor bolt patterns.
