I need one. Anyone know of a source or have one they would like to sell? I am pulling the engine and trans and found my flexplate was cracked. I have been doing searches on google and ebay. Maybe someone knows for sure what else crosses over? I know the 144 is shared with engines up to 200 cid, but I am not sure how long the 2 speed Merc-O-Matic was used, poss only with the 144 and the 170. Thanks in advance, Duane

Not sure if the 144 had one, but on 200's there is a reinforcement ring that retains the flexplate under all the bolts. Without it, the flexplate tends to crack around the bolt area. Looks like this:
