M117 Flexplates
Gentlemen
I get the pleasure of changing the flexplate/flywheel in My 450SLC. Do all M117 &/or M116 flexplates interchange ? Is there a better one than another ? Maybe a stronger or lighter flexplate ? I also get to change my starter as well. Any insight on this project so I am better prepared. I have a M117 flexplate from a Euro 500SL would this be ok ? Thanks Sincerely Rev. Buzz |

What is the OD (ring gear diameter) of the flexplate from the 500SL? |

Are we talking about the triangular metal that connects the crank to the ring gear? It's not exactly a heavy item in my experience tearing apart iron 4.5 blocks. It's something I questioned how flimsy of an item it could be, but I'm guessing all it does is transfer power from start to the crank. So I guess an even lighter piece could possibly be used.
