You can do that to. My only issue with the stocker taking that abuse is I have seen them crack. If it lets go completely, you will be replacing way more than a $200 part it costs to get the TCI billet flexplate. Blocks can get cracked, tranny's wasted, parts going through floor board,etc. It's your choice and I know alot of people are using stockers in their ride, but after seeing a few of them crack, i'd feel much better with the TCI piece. Just a bad place to skimp on money IMO.

The only problem i had with the only TCI i have installed is that i had to grind down the heads of the converter bolts cause they were hitting some rear timing cover bolts.
The plate doesn't give you alot of room for the bolts. and its HEAVY. i have a 98-99 stocl LS1 flexplate. Alot stronger than the 2000 and up ones and light weight.
