ay all. Had the car on the dyno last week and all went good. Took the car home and let it sit for a few days and went to start it and it seemed the starter was getting jammed. Tried a new starter and still the same problem, so I removed the transmition to find my flexplate has copped a hiding and flexed to the point it has rubbed on the engine and caused hotspots causing it to bend. Any ideas what is the best way to stop this happening again? Strengthened standard plex plate or some sort of heavy duty one? Cheers. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

yella terra billet flex plate, I think they're around $250. Just have to weld your ring gear on.
