91 corvette LS swap with MS3 cam and 4L60E trans.

I am ready to go back in with my trans after a rebuild. I have a stock LS1 flexplate and have heard they can crack. I picked up this supposedly LS2 flexplate for peanuts. Are the LS2 flexplates better?.. Should I take the opportunity to replace it with a SFI approved flexplate.

I say run it, unless you have money to waste.

Cool, it looks better made than the earlier flexplate.

I found out this flexplate is supposedly pretty stout and has been recommended by Yank to a forum member with his SS3600.
Thanks for your help
