During a clutch replacement on a 1970 1600, I noticed no flywheel lockplates.
When I mentioned it, I was informed that the later engines didn't use lockplates, same as the U20. Parts manual shows lockplates (Item #84) apply to all year R16's.
Anyone know for sure whether there are flywheel lockplates on all year R16's?
Thanks,

Re: R16 Flywheel Bolt Lockplate
Can’t answer that question, but they are NLA. Someone found that the lock plates for a MGB from Moss Motors fits fine. I bought some & they do fit fine. HOWEVER I also used ARP bolts (torqued to 45 ft-lbs), which don’t work with lock plates, the bolts need the hex head to go all the way down, the ARPs don’t. Use blue locktite either way.

I did find it is best to prebend the tab up a bit. Otherwise good luck with it.
66 stroker, almost done.
67 basket case, paint coming soon.
