This is a must with the
high torque Cummins in conjunction with a better designed torque
converter that can transfer the torque with no slip. The flex plate is
bolted to the crank shaft, then the converter is bolted to flex plate.
The torque from your Cummins is transfered to the flex plate, from the
flex plate to the torque converter then to your input shaft in the
trans. With increased torque from the engine and no slip out of the
converter it can crack and/or rip the center out of a stock flex plate.
The Sun Coast billet
flywheels are CNC machined from a forging for strength and reliefs are
machined out between the converter mounting area and the crank flange to
enable some flex. We designed our flexible billet flywheel with the
understanding that it needs to flex but at the same time we added extra
thickness to prevent cracking. We started with a better quality material
and a better manufacturing process to make it stronger. Our flexible
flywheel made or exceeded all the new SFI specification 29.3
requirements for materials, mechanical properties, design and rotational
integrity.
NOTE:
A SFI certified flywheel flex plate is required on drag racing vehicles
running 11.99 and quicker in the 1/4 mile and 7.49 and quicker in the
1/8 mile, or any vehicle exceeding 135mph. It was changed in 2008 from
the 29.1 SFI specification to the SFI specification 29.3 for automatic
transmission flex plates for diesel applications. The new rules for the
flexplate requires that the material can not be a stamped metal as many
OEM and aftermarket flex plates are. To maintain the SFI specification
29.3 requirements, the flex plate must be replaced every three years.
