    Well I don't have these at all. My 2 panels with 2 big holes in them have no steel plate to sit on.

    Anyone has a chassis like mine?
    Or am I missing the steel plates?

    Manual revision 1i covered this change.
    Do you have the metal plate shown in this picture?
    I suspect one plate for Subaru master cylinders and on for Wilwood double cylinders.

    I don't think so, 1i is the one FFR printed out for me.

    Ha that's why it's different (though it doesn't explain why my 1i is different than yours). I can't recall having that plate but I'll take a look in my boxes.

    Whether I have it or not, it explains the differences between the manual and my chassis.

    Tnx Bob

    I don't have it in my POL!
    I'll dig in my boxes.

    Wow, double cylinders for the Wilwoods, eh? What's the reason for a second cylinder?
