6.6 Duramax Billet Flex Plate 2001-up

The Goerend high-strength steel flexplate is 50% thicker than stock and is a stronger, more economical replacement for the OEM flexplate. This flexplate is formed by the process of metal spinning which results in a more durable part than other manufacturing methods. No coatings are applied to the Goerend flexplate to prevent the potential for hydrogen embrittlement that can occur with zinc or oxide coatings. Other flexplates have a ring gear for the starter drive, but in the case of the Allison 1000 transmission, the ring gear is located on the solid flywheel and the flexplate will go between the flywheel and torque converter. A critical function of this flexplate is to absorb the axial thrust force exerted by the torque converter during operation. Aftermarket billet flywheels eliminate the flexplate, so all the thrust force will unfortunately go directly to the crankshaft and thrust bearings.

MTS recommends this flex plate for High Torque / Horsepower applications!!!

We have never seen this flex plate Break!!!

This is a must for Drag Trucks and sled pullers!!!
