A few minor problems for the 13B. One hole was ten thou
off or so but it could be drilled out with no problems.
One cup tab was a bit too long so that could be hacksawed off.
We had a few typical bolt circle problems but easily fixed by
drilling the holes out to 27/64th instead of 10 MM.

Other than that the 13B was usable. The starter hole
was a bit on the small side but I can set it up in my
cheap Chinese mill and bore it out about .020.
The starter hole should be 2.640.

I was working from Tracy's dwg and I should have
checked the dwg against Tracy motor plate which I also have.
The drawings had a few errors and I probably made one or
two my self. The dwg does not match Tracy's plate :)

The RX8 extra bell house bolt was way off by about a half inch so
that is going to require a whole new dwg which I have about done.
I want to make the plates fit both the 13B and the RX8 motor.

Jeff I'll get the  fixed dwg to you in a day or so.
