I didn't have a plate between the engine and tranny on the '78. I've found that the plate from the '83 will fit so I'm going to use it. The flex plate must be swapped, though.

But, I seem to remember something about a shim/spacer in the TH400 flexplate that you will need to put in the flexplate of the 83. Someone else probably remembers this much better than me. If so, speek up! -brad
