Yeah I counted it 3 times because I was stumped. I have a c4 trans. I found it very weird I don't know where a 160t flexplate comes from. hahaha

Over all diameter and balance weight is really the issue, The ones with more teeth are bigger and need a larger Clevo bell housing.

Noob question.
Would additional welds on the flex plate throw the balance out ?
Sorry for the hijack.
