Could be. The five speed stop plate is narrower than the four speed, and 
allows for the wider overall gate of the five speed.

A nicely illustrated "how-to" on shifter adjustment can be found on Jonny 
Guru's site, Bad Habit Rabbit at:

Having done that swap myself, I can vouch that the shifter adjustment is way 
easier when you use the five speed plate.
