I've destroyed one flexplate which in turn took out the transmission I had in at the time.
Pulling the engine to address another failed trans a couple of years later showed the new flexplate was cracked all around the crank mounting bolts.
Being that it's such a pain in the ~~~ to pull engine/drop subframe+trans just to change this part I'm hoping I can find something -MUCH- stronger to avoid dealing with this again.
Anyone know of a place that does custom flexplates? atiracing dashed my hopes today and I don't know where to turn.
Specs
1995 3.8 + 1994 M90 Blower (torque stress perhaps?)
Working on Internally balanced 4.2 Crank + custom rods and pistons
135 Tooth, 11.3" diameter external balance
