The flex plates on a NA motor are the same correct?

The NA flexplate will bolt on and should work, but isn't built as heavy as the turbo one. The turbo one even has a different part number.

A lot of broken parts does not make you a racer; it makes you a slow learner.

I never did understand the turbo and na flywheel differancees.  I know guys that have been running na ones installed for years and no issues.
I also wonder if it can be proven in the field that a turbo crank is indeed stronger than a na crank.

The turbo flexplate is slightly thicker to hold up to the extra power. As far as the crank goes, compressing the metal allows for a thicker density which makes it stronger in the weakest location.

good info charlie!
so the rolls on the journals are indeed compressed, and not cut?

That's why it's called "rolled fillets" Aaron. The 301T had the same thing done to the cranks.

thanks charlie.  for some reason I was thinking "cut" because of the word "fillet".
makes sense to me now :cheers:
