well after several months of R&D I have a few of the finished product!
say hello to the only aftermarket flywheel for the Opel 8v and 95-current Iron Ecotec as well as all of the small block motors west of the Atlantic Ocean!
the clutch kit picured is our 4-puck kevlar disc and 1500lb cover plate (300lb over stock).
the price is still being decided on, because the flywheels are a one-off they are a bit more expensive than a similar redtop flywheel we can get from Fidanza. right now I'm thinking the price will be about $495 but the end price may be more like $540 ...however the Clutch kit sells for $350+postage
I'll get more accurate measurements asap (down to the ounce) but our prelim weighing has this aluminum flywheel at.... 7lbs! as a compareison, my stock "flat flywheel" (.080" step), after having 2.5lbs cut out of it weights 12lbs. I don't have the exact weight of a stock pot style flywheel but if I had to guess I'd say you are looking at around 20-25lbs.
I have three right now, I'll be using one on my lemans and one is going to Canada to be used in a C20GET. that leaves one that's up for grabs for now but more are on the way

Re: Fidanza Flywheel
man, if you had one for the d-tec 2.0, i would be all over it. the motor takes forever to come down after you let off the throttle. if you know of anyone who does manufacture a lightened flywheel, or clutch kit for the d-tec. let me know.
