I noticed that too. It also says if you use 2 of the 1600 plates it will work
with the 5 speed. I wonder if the thickness is .08 rather than .8??? I looked
for an author of the 4speedto5speedswap, but could not find credit for the
writer.
Can someone confirm thickness of 1600 vs. 2000 front covers? Dewey
