As the others said, they sure do. If you purchase any race bell housing you should get a replacement shield.
The standard race housing that I got fit just fine, but I believe it was set up for either a 351W or 302, which have different diameter flywheels. So there is a spacer for your starter on the plate.
I only bring this up because the documentation was less than clear, but at the same time fairly obvious. At least after you try to bolt on the starter the first time and it bangs into the flywheel.
