"""D3 high performance flex plate for the automatic transmissions. Capable of handling 400+ hp. Over twice as strong as the factory flex plate and maintains the same weight as factory. Our new flex plate is three times thicker then the factory stamped steel flex plate. This item uses 4130 chrome molly, heat treated and completely CNC for perfect tolerances. This is a must if you plan on increasing horsepower."""

Anybody have any thoughts about this?? Any possible performance gains?
 
I would buy one right now. The metal they use in the original flexplate is junk. I have broken 2 flexplates in under 3 months. This is something i have been looking for, i just hope they get them up for sale soon.

"Our new flex plate is three times thicker then the factory stamped steel flex plate"

With the TC seated in the trans pump on a W4A33/F4A33 trans, what is your given distance/measurement from the TC mounting feet/pads to the flex-plate as related to stock values? Also, what effect does this three times thicker than stock flex-plate have on the TC to pump clearance and is this thickness added at the motor or TC side of the FP?
