A 1957 Cadillac owner in Norway is looking for the spacer pictured above. Anybody know where I can get one for him?
Diameter - 1.613"
Thickness - 0.182"
Center hole - 0.125" with chamfer (looks like a center drill for fast production)
Edges chamfered both sides - 0.075" across the flats

Hi Dave!
Glad to see you here! About the plug: I wrote Henning that he should let do one on a lathe if dimensions are available. As you pubished them, it will not be a problem anymore.

I have just completed a rebuild, and there was no washer when I removed the transmission.

I now feel a little ill as I put it back as I found it.

Should I be worried?

Tim, you may experience unusual vibrations, maybe none...Even if that spacer has a low cost to GM, I'm sure it was there for some reason.
