1) My SVX was build 12/93, how are the chances that it came with the reinforcement plate (and I will stay out of trouble)?

2) How does this reinforcement plate work (do you need to weld it onto the flex plate)?

Thanks!

As far as I know, every SVX ever made came with the reinforcement plate.
It is just a washer, and the bolts go through it into the crankshaft.
No welding required.
