Flexplates and converters... please help So i need help from you experienced TH400 users... im coming here because there isnt very much information about these things in my community... plus the chevy performance community has been doing this for years
My application is a 95 Toyota Supra Turbo with a little over 800 crank hp...
I have the Th400 already (Built by DRC in Elk Grove Village, IL), but im in need of a converter
i have two options... running a hybrid converter that has the Toyota flexplate bolt circle that can be adapted to the TH400
OR
running a billet SFI flexplate with a pattern for a GM converter (11.5") and getting a GM style converter
are there any cons to running a billet aluminum flexplate on a street car (sees about 4-5k miles a year)?
What converters do you guys use for these power applications? How much do they cost? (I will be using a transbrake and car puts out about 700 crank ftlbs... i also need a 3400-3600 rpm stall)
Any help is greatly appreciated... thank you
