I was just wondering what some of the guys making over 600hp are doing for converter bolts. Did anyone upgrade to 8 bolts with the Kiggly flexplate, or drill a hole and run a dowel pin?

Well got my answer. Talked to my buddy Steve over at pats converters and said a good bolt and red Locktite will hold 1000hp. He said most guys run a 3 pad setup on big power v8s making big numbers and around 1200hp they will go to a 6 pad.
