Poor Man’s Jerico
The Lakewood 1/4-inch–thick block-saver plate bolts between the block and the scattershield to keep pieces of shredded clutch or flywheel contained in the event of an explosion; it also protects the cylinder block. The plate is bolted to the scattershield with Grade 8 hardware, but two of the bolts fit into the recess at the back of the block with no way to get a wrench on them. We had the heads tack-welded to the block plate to make assembly easier (arrows). View Related Article
