Before dropping the 396 into Magnum TPI, Aaron Strope and technician Roger Creech installed our ATI flexplate (part No. 915533). As far as we know, ATI is the only manufacturer who makes an SFI-approved flexplate for neutral balance and a one-piece rear main seal. Both the ATI flexplate and our ATI balancer are designed to meet SFI specification 29.1, an NHRA requirement for cars running 10.99 and quicker. Strope also used ARP flexplate bolts (part No. 200.2902) which have a tensile strength of 190,000 psi. Often the flexplate and flexplate bolts are ignored, sometimes resulting in great harm to the driver*s health!
