There seems to be a few mid-plates that are aluminum available. I would just be curious if the plates front and back would flex if both were aluminum. I have just a front motor plate from All Pontiac which is working out really well. I guess you could always take yours to a fab shop and they certainly could make you one.

Default front motor plate

I made my own using a 1/4" thick 6061 aluminum plate. I made it so I can utilize a down and forward turbo headers.
