Flywheel Gland Nut

It's really a bolt, but that's what everybody calls it. This bolt holds the flywheel on. If you are using an old one make sure the needle bearings in the pilot bearing are still in the end and that it's not rusted. Note: This bolt should be put on with a torque wrench and not a breaker bar with someone jumping off the roof. Impact guns are out too! Torque the bolt to 250 ft. lb., anything less and it will come loose. Anything more and you run the risk of cracking the bolt and having the flywheel fall off.

Lightened Flywheels

Lightened 12 lb. flywheels are great for getting off the line faster or for faster acceleration. They're not good if you do a lot of freeway driving. When picking out a flywheel, you'll need to decide what you're going to be doing with the car. If you're not sure which flywheel you'll need, give us a call and we'll help you with your decision. We've had major problem with new Brazilian flywheels and feel the chromoly ones are much better. Do not run a lightened flywheel on a Bus. Flywheels come 8 doweled.

Extra Length Flywheel Pins

Here are some flywheel pins that give you more contact surface on the flywheel. Most cranks and flywheels are 8mm unless someone has oversized them for some reason. It's important you make sure they don't stick out of the flywheel when it's installed.

Flywheel Dowel Pins

These pins hold the flywheel in place on the crankshaft. Should the hole that these go into become ovaled, throw away the crank or flywheel, whichever one is ovaled. Attempts to fix them are risky, since it is difficult and expensive to make the surfaces flat and true.

8 Dowel Flywheel Gasket

This gasket is only used if you're having problems with your end play. Lets say you have three .010" flywheel shims and when you torque the flywheel the motor locks up. You'd use this gasket to give you more endplay.

Flywheel Lock

This lock works on both the 6v and 12v flywheels. It's the right way to lock up the flywheel when setting the endplay or torquing it. Note: A screw driver wedged against one of the bottom studs does not work.
