Circle d flexplate question

Anyone used this flexplate? Going to go with a circle d converter for the swap. Was going to go with a tci until I saw this monster.

I run a CDS (Circle D Specialties) flexplate in our SBC Vega drag car and it's a really nice piece. I also have the TCI unit in our LS Camaro only because That was the only decent flexplate available at the time. The TCI unit had the powder coating chip off and loosen up on us early on. What a mess that caused. SMH.

The fractional difference in weight still places the CDS flexplate in the winners corner IMO. It is just that nice.

Thanks James.... They are a very nice piece. Fully machined CNC aluminum. They are a tad lighter than the TCI version. What type of power are you planning n making?
