  DaveThere is the RX-8 flexwheel holes size and location the flexplate
  thickness is .080"also sketch to adapt the Tracy damper to the RX-8 with a
  .090 4130 steel plate

Jean,  I think you have it there...  that should work very well.  Easy to
make and install too!  It will move the damper plate .090 closer the the
gear box, but that should not be a big problem.   Well done!  I will send it
to Tracy giving you credit and see what he thinks.

BTW, do you know the weight of the RX-8 flex plate?

        DavidIt weight exactly 5 pounds by the way if you need mine for rush work and then you can replace it when you find one, for now if i need measurements for my prop drive design and stator i can take it on my other engine, I am offering to you to save you  time  let me know. Milo I beefy up the Evinrude flywheel with carbon fiber and i will send it to you for machining this week with a sketch, you see i do design for both stators Honda and The Evinrude and will see which one is the best and also the availibility it's a question.The Honda one are not been produce anymore but it still lot of CB400T again on the road and part can be found true EBAY.COMM around the world and it look the one who is the easyest to adapt and lighter,no balancing required, the spark output is 10,000 volts
