Flex plate

Cost - I already have a race spec 727
Labour - not really interested in chopping and modding the centre console, tunnel etc
Wastage - I dont want to have a firesale on hardly used trans, converter driveshaft and diff gears
Purpose - my 727 is tuffer, shifts harder, shifts quicker and is more suitable for a street strip car.

Those are my reasons anyhow.....don't know about others.....:thumbrig:

Yes Sir!

I have blown through 4 "545" transmissions with this motor that was in my truck. I believe a 904/727 can be built stronger to handle the HP.
