Isn't the flexplate from the newer 6 speed auto supposed to fit and be a whole lot stronger? Also about $125 I believe.

Mine is a billet flex plate that was ~$425 from Goerend. I believe the DTT's are about the same price. If you want strength then go Billet. Just my $.02

The convertor hub hole is quite a bit bigger. I know I tried it.
