Than maybe its use should be omitted from the build manual. Every Ricardo build log seems to be using it. Kinda odd why this is being mentioned now.
The above mentioned transmissions and transaxles were designed with those particular number of mounting points. The Super T10 and Muncie are held with 4 bolts to the bell housing but we are talking about the mounting from the bell housing to the engine. The Ricardo was designed to be mounted with 8. Plus the fact that it weighs nearly 30lbs more than most. It just bothers me to use less than what it was designed for. I think this is a typical "ALEX" moment for me. (over thinking things)
