Sun Coast 2001-2005 Billet Flex Plate A1-BFP
This flywheel/flex plate is an improved billet one piece design, eliminates the heavy cast iron and the weak stamped steel flex plate. This is a must with the high torque in conjunction with a better designed torque converter that can transfer the torque with no slip. With increased torque from the engine and no slip out of the converter it can crack and/or rip the center out of a stock flex plate. These are SFI certified flywheel flex plates. They are required on drag racing vehicles running 11.99 and quicker in the 1/4 mile and 7.49 and quicker in the 1/8 mile, or any vehicle exceeding 135 mph. The SFI rules for the flex plate require that the material can not be a stamped metal as many OEM and after market flex plates are. To maintain the SFI specification 29.3 requirements, the flex plate must be replaced every three years. Don't forget to replace the flex plate bolts, since they are only intended to be used one time.
