Need an adapter flexplate for Gen3 to 518.
Jegs has ATI brand that is SFI approved for $125.
Mancini has 1 that is not SFI approved and is the same part number as the MP part for $62.

So what's the difference, is it worth paying double for "SFI approved"?

It just depends if you are going to run faster than 9.99 and want to run at NHRA tracks that enforce the rules.

Are you going to run a shield?

Car will probably never see track, and if it does, definitely 11 sec at best.

BDW, no reason for the SFI plate in my opinion.

I have both the MP part and the ATI flexplate. The ATI part is much nicer, and thicker material.
