If everything is aligned properly, why would you want it to flex? If the converter is flopping around everywhere in the bell housing, it will destroy the pump and BOOM. There goes your tranny. Once everything is aligned properly, the billet plate will hold everything in a straight line and will not snap. The ONLY reason a billet flexplate will break is because of an alignment issue. Stockers break mostly by overpowering its capacity.
Some Fords like the stock flexplates because some have a cronic alignment issue, but thats not an issue in a Duramax
