That...and a forged flywheel is less likely to frag than a cast flywheel. Plus Don is planning on a shot of NOS and is planning to drag-race...if he gets serious about it, a cast flywheel is a no-no, whether it comes up in tech inspections, or whether Don wants to replace a transmission and engine case later on.
hi don , i use a 215 wasser f/w in a 2.1 in my germanlook 03 it has a magnesium 915 gearbox , i broke all 5 stock bolts early this year, , did not damage the f/w at all . was well shocked to dicover no damage to f/w.
jake .......?????or any others out there i have 10 billet 200mm (en spec steel) flywheels waiting to be sold , but i cant locate any ring gears here in England, my last hope is the states to source some, other than that weve left enough material on there to have them cut (the teeth ) and then hardened , rather find some ring gears to shrink on though . anyone have any info .??????? all the best Lee L.A.Performance.
Is there a way to tell by looking if a flywheel is a forged one or not?
How do you know that someone didn't just put a cast flywheel on their vanagon along the way?
