I replaced the clutch, flywheel, etc. on my 1997 Trans Am last weekend. I knew that the previous owner installed the Fidanza Aluminum flywheel and I also knew that the frictional surface on this piece is servicable. Even so, I decided to get a new flywheel then decide what to do with this one later. It is now later.
The flywheel is this one: http://www.summitracing.com/parts/FIZ-198581/ At 12.5 lbs, it is not a drag racing piece. However, I found it largely reasonable on the street even with it's light weight. I haven't decided if I am going to sell it to recoup some of the cost of the new pieces or send it to Fidanza and have the surface serviced and then have it rebalanced to put on the shelf as spare. Also, I have not priced doing this work. I am gauging interest to see what this piece might be worth to others. I have showed it to two people and their reaction was the same as mine - it probably doesn't need resurfaced, just installed. However, my thinking is that I wouldn't want to install it only to learn that I had to do the job again because it was indeed worn (it doesn't look worn at all) and I couldn't tell by looking at it. If there is interest, I would be glad to go out to the garage and snap a few pictures of it. |

I suppose one of us needs to check with Fidanza. I checked their website but there is no info about this there (that I could find).
