Default SFI 29.1 approved flexplate

Just found CAT flexplates for 60 bucks shipped!!! Yeah they are kinda heavy but thats great if your launching off a transbrake. These are the same flexplates that many other companies are re-badging. They have alot of really good reviews. Yes these are for LS engines. The cheapest name brand SFI flexplate I could find besides this one was a TCI for $289.00. Anyhow just thought I'd let you guys know.

fyi since you have a turbo build imo for big hp cars you should consider circle D's welded bad @@@ flexplate or the most expensive flexplate i've seen is a billet (no welds i think) mezire (?) over $400 bones.

60 bucks shipped and SFI approved for 12,500 RPM. I dont see anything wrong with them. When it gets here I'll be sure to get a weight and thickness.

Im running the cat also. Their sfi rating WAS legit but has since been pulled or not renewed however that works. I think Yanks SFI they sell is a cat and several others rebadge it as well.
