I hear ya, but you're fine. They are just two different styles. If you look closely, the depth from crank flange to converter flange are the same overall. One just has one step and the other has two. I have used several brands, all with different styles. The JW wheel is just a plate with a thick flange. The depth is the same overall to other brands.

You may want to look at TCI flex plates. They're cheap and SFI approved. You may want to talk to your converter builder first before buying though. They may be able to cut you a deal. If they try to sell you a $300 flex plate for that stocker, then you know you have the wrong builder.

Hope this helps.
