I don't recommend aluminum flywheels.... find a chromoly or just use a standard 200mm....

Fidanza has problems with their ring gears staying attached..... also, had a friends Saturn back the pressure plate bolts off due to heat expansion variances between the steel and aluminum.... he lost 100% usage of his clutch. Even though the Fidanza had lasted a few years (and the clutch/pp still looked fine) we went back to a stock... been a few years since and it's still perfectly fine.

I've had a friend with his built "2"tge break the ring gear off 3 times... Fidanza won't even warranty them anymore and claims "there's a problem with his car" (yeah... it has 4 times the original power, high compression, and a heavy duty starter to get it going... apparently that means "problem")


plus that's $200 or so you could put towards cams or something useful
