About this product
The SunCoast 618-BFP Billet Flexplate for the 1994-2007 Dodge 5.9L Cummins is a "must have" when it comes to putting power to the ground in your truck. The high torque of your Cummins, in conjunction with a better-designed torque converter, can transfer the torque with no slip. While the factory flexplate is adequate for transferring torque from the engine to your transmission, with increased torque from the engine and no slip out of the converter in higher horsepower builds, it can crack and/or rip the center out of a stock flex plate. This is obviously less than ideal.
The SunCoast Billet flexplates are CNC machined from a forging for strength,, and reliefs are machined out between the converter mounting area and the crank flange to enable some flex. SunCoast designed their Flexible Billet Flexplate with the understanding that it needs to flex but at the same time, they added extra thickness to prevent cracking. SunCoast started with better quality materials and better manufacturing processes to make it stronger. The flexplate meets or exceeds all the SFI specification 29.3 requirements for materials, mechanical properties, design, and rotational integrity.
