So last week after some playing around on the highway with a few friends, I put a few cracks in my high mileage stock flexplate.
I guess higher compression,3000 stall,150 shots and awd drive kinda beat that thing up alittle.

Looks like your bolts possibly backed out a little??

Bolts where loose a little from having no pressure any longer. The flexplate had 130,000 miles on it behind close to 11:1 engine that had quite a few bottles at 150 ran through it. It's back together and back to N/A for awhile

I never understood why GM went with just three bolts. I guess it wasn't designed with 450+ rwhp in mine. Seems like 6 would be cheap insurance.

Thats why the 80E has 6 bolts...
