What is the best 4L80 flex plate when upgrading from a 4L60 to a 4L80? I'll be using an LQ4 block and would like a STRONG flexplate. Thanks in advance.

it ain't that I'm too big to listen to the rumors, It's just that I'm too damn big to pay attention to 'em..That's the difference
Which tc are you going to be using? I just bought the 278mm tc and they told me to use my 60e flexplate as the 278mm tc is based off of the 3 bolt 60e tc.

get on tci's site, there is a specific one for the 60e and 80e. I recommend tci, never had an issue with it. Really ensures you're a little safer if your truck is gonna make power.

Got it, and what about this spacer I keep hearing about? From what I have researched, there is some mention of needing a spacer between the crank and flexplate in order to properly mesh with the starter's teeth. Also, Alan, people tell me you make a conversion wiring harness for swapping from a 4L60 to 4L80. Is that right?

I'm still a bit confused about this 'internal vs. external balance' thing. What is that all about? Also, do I need a 168 tooth flexplate? I'm more trying to get a flexplate I can just bolt in and go with.
