Default Steel flywheel for a whiteblock

I tried to search. I found some material while searching. I read the material, John V thread, some question threads etc.

But I could not really find what I was looking for.

Does anyone make steel flywheels for whiteblocks? Then who? And how much do they cost?

I found two places. Vintage performance and Advanced clutches, but I guess that you will have to make a special order.

Sure... special orders can always be made. Then tell me the best place for that, and also what it costs if you have that info.

But it would be nice if there were ready flywheels that could be bought so that I do not have to specify the specs, send blueprints and measurements etc.

Köhler Racing sells a lightened single mass flywheel, that's all I know off the top of my head. http://www.kohlerracing.se/produkter/IMG_0304.JPG

they have aluminum flywheels for redblocks here:

i don't know for sure, but i bet they could do something for a whiteblock, might be worth giving them a ring and asking.

Looks sweet. That is what I am looking for.

It will of course have to take a 240mm clutch and have the appropriate holes for the sensor.

Haha... didn't notice it was a 10-bolt flywheel.

How much do they cost then?

And a stupid question: are they durable (aka: will they explode sooner or later)?

That is a fair price. I will get one once the Christmas season is over (I might buy the flywheel before that though).
