Hey guys, this post is my report back about the experience I had with IRC and what I have found out about the IRC engine plate.

1. Rob from Innovative-RC is a nice guy to deal with once you get a hold of him. Very apologetic and he promptly sent out my missing parts once he knew of his mistake.
2. This engine plate is one solid unit, quite heavy, but it is very sturdy (and shiny )
3. The engine plate is machined with great precision, no slop in the engine mounting holes, and everything lined up perfectly.
and 4. IT WORKS WITH FLM LCG TVP's! I am quite happy about my $35 purchase, and for all of you running the standard length FLM tvps, IRC's engine plate is IMO the answer to all your engine plate fitment issues.
