Flexplate Going South

My flexplate is going out in my Truck. Does anyone know if someone makes a good Flexplate, besides ATS?

I didn't see any on a quick search. But there must be. Give BTS a call or John Wood. You'll get a straight answer.

thats b/c auto flexplates are very thin and generally i don't even think they are solid.. not very ballzy in my opinion...

the flywheel for a manual tranny obviously has to be solid and has to be thick to have the ability to be resurfaced a few times. so they are naturally ballzy parts!!!
