Mark,
 
   Even if= welded together I presume the four bolts for the RD1X drive plate will req= uire the spacers ??..............

Kelly, 

Yes, spacers will be required, approximately .250" thick, unless I dec= ide to connect the two plates via welding, then it won't matter if they tou= ch or not.  Originally, I thought they would nest together without the= need for spacers.  I like the idea of bolting them so it can be disas= sembled if necessary.

All,=20

Attached is a picture of my proposed solution to the cracking flexplat= es.  I used my old 13B flexplate, removed the ring gear, and nested it= inside the 20B/RX-8 flexplate.  It could be held together by bolting = or by welding around the outer perimeter, similar to how the ring gear is a= ttached, although welding may cause warping.  If bolted, there would b= e ten bolts holding the two flexplates together.  I favor the bolting = method as the four bolts holding the aluminum adapter will be a bit tricky = to install and bolting would make it a bit easier to assemble.
