Cracking Flexplates

Cracking Flexplates
I have an 86 Chevy K10 with a 350 and 700R4 automatic trans that is cracking flexplates.
originally they were cracking in 200 mile intervals I had a new torque converter installed and had the trans rebuilt. this flexplate has lasted just shy of 6,000 miles and just cracked again.
the engine runs smooth at idle and throughout speeds.
any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks Mike

Are they cracking around the bolts????? This is a common problem and it sounds like it is an installation problem ie not getting the bolts torqued correctly or you are getting a run of bad ones....try spending the extra on a performance flywheel.
