trans adapt plate

i have been looking on this site for the thickness of a adaptor plate to connect a 302 ford to a 5speed audi mannual trans. I found one mention of a 15.8 mm 5/8" plate once but I would feel better if I could get a little more input.Thank You very much and stay safe. gary

If you are designing your own the actual thickness doesn't really matter. I make them 3/4 inch thick and make the flywheel to match. You need to find out what the bellhousing to clutch surface distance was on the original installation and make your flywheel to match that. You might need an extension on the pilot bearing to make sure the pilot on the end of the input shaft fits right.
