BD offers up their 29.3 SFI rated Billet Steel FleX-Plate for the Allison backed Duramax! Unlike other manufacturers, BD is reusing the stock flywheel assembly to reduce costs and unnecessary part changes. The BD FleX-Plate is designed to handle up to 1500 ft/lbs of torque and is billet machined and precision balanced for ultimate strength. Also, because BD does not require replacement of the entire flywheel assembly, this gives the entire flywheel-flexplate assembly the ability to still flex, as opposed to cracking like many other units will do, because they are TOO rigid!

When additional horsepower and torque are added to your Duramax, you run the risk of cracking the stock flexplate. Designed to handle up to 1500 ft/lbs of torque, the new Duramax Black Oxide coated flexplate is corrosion resistant to prevent hydrogen embrittlement, billet machined and precision balanced for ultimate strength. This flex plate is twice as thick as stock and has passed the stringent 29.3 SFI testing, making it legal for use in race sanctioning bodies specific to High Horsepower diesels. These units are a direct bolt-in and fit any OEM or aftermarket torque converter.

Only Replace the Weak Link! Unlike other manufacturers, BD does not require the replacement of the entire flywheel assembly, which is costly and unnecessary. In fact, most flywheel-flexplate assemblies have too little axial thrust (the inability to flex), making them just as susceptible to cracking as a stock flexplate. Save $$ replacing only the flexplate and not the entire assembly. Save $$ replacing only the flexplate and not the entire assembly.
