What is the primary purpose of this flywheel?

This flywheel is designed to adapt an 8-bolt Chevrolet LS engine crankshaft to a BMW DCT transmission. It allows for the physical and functional connection between these two distinct powertrain components in custom builds.

What are the benefits of an aluminum flywheel?

Aluminum flywheels are lighter than traditional steel flywheels. This reduced rotating mass can lead to quicker engine acceleration and a more responsive feel, especially in performance-oriented applications.

Does this flywheel include the clutch assembly?

This product listing is for the Clutch Masters dampened aluminum flywheel only. The clutch assembly, pressure plate, and other related drivetrain components are sold separately and must be sourced to complete the installation.

About this part

Product Details

This package includes the Clutch Masters dampened aluminum flywheel specifically designed to adapt an 8-bolt crankshaft from a Chevrolet LS engine to a BMW DCT transmission. It’s a well-built component crafted from aluminum for a lighter rotating mass compared to steel flywheels, which can help improve engine response. The dampened design incorporates features to absorb torsional vibrations, smoothing out the power delivery from the LS engine to the DCT gearbox.

This flywheel is engineered for enthusiasts looking to perform a specific engine swap, allowing the robust performance of a Chevrolet LS engine to be paired with the advanced shifting capabilities of a BMW DCT transmission. The aluminum construction not only reduces weight but also aids in heat dissipation. The 8-bolt crank pattern ensures proper engagement with the corresponding LS engine crankshaft, while the overall design is intended to mate correctly with the BMW DCT clutch assembly. This is a critical piece for custom builds where integrating these two distinct powertrain components is the goal.

When undertaking a project like this, it's important to ensure all supporting components are compatible. Refer to the manufacturer's installation instructions for detailed guidance on proper assembly and any specific torque requirements. This flywheel is a key component for achieving a successful LS to DCT swap.
