| For those of you who are curious: "On any car in which the driver sits over or behind the rear-end center section, a suitable protective shield of .120-inch minimum thickness steel plate must be installed for units with universal joints, securely mounted to the rear-end center section and the bellhousing adapter. For straight couplers, the minimum shield requirement is .063-inch aluminum, which must contain an inspection cover for removal and inspection of the coupler securely Section 20 - General Regulations 20.9" I don't know why it says "securely mounted to the rear end center section" because the diagram shows it as 6" max from the front u-joint.
