I want to determine just WHAT the flex plate is.. its NOT a
flywheel of sorts is it? Its ringed with teeth for the starter, and it has
holes that MAY be useable for mounting... but I am not sure if the
"flex plate" is in fact the auto flywheel? or something I need to remove
from the weight when attaching a new flywheel (that has yet to be
bought)..
As others have said, you
need both, so you scored by getting the plate along with the weight. Aside
from being used for the starter, those mounting holes are normally used to bolt
on the torque converter of the auto trans. Tracy uses them to bolt on his
dampener plate, which is what actually drives the shaft of the redrive.
Sounds like you're set.
