I know that people are always looking for these plates.  In the quest to do one of the things to lighten Quiggs '66 GS I made his plates from, IF I remember correctly, out of 1/2" aluminum.  Rememer this was a manual trans. car & from a dead stop would dump the clutch at 3200-4500RPMs. Never did break one, BUT then again the left is chained.
