Crucial Step! How to Install a Flexplate on a Small Block Chevy!

Here is a crucial step to the engine building process, installing the flexplate. The flexplate is what transfers the power from the engine to the torque converter and ultimately to the back tires. In this video we show you how to install the flexplate with ARP hardware and Loctite 242 thread locker. Bonus footage, we get the engine on the run stand! Enjoy!
