McLeod Flywheel Aluminum Chevy 1955-85 SB & All BB Motors 168

McLeod Racing has been a well-known name in the performance clutch and drivetrain world for a long time, and they build parts designed to handle serious power. This aluminum flywheel is a prime example, built for Chevy small-block and big-block engines from 1955 through 1985. If you're building a high-horsepower street machine, a dedicated race car, or anything that sees frequent, rapid changes in engine speed, this flywheel is engineered to keep up.

What sets this flywheel apart is its construction. It's CNC machined from strong 6061 T6 aluminum, which keeps the weight down compared to a cast iron unit. This lighter mass allows the engine to rev up and down more quickly, which is crucial for performance applications. To ensure durability and proper engagement, it features a replaceable steel friction plate and a hardened 1045 steel ring gear. This means key wear surfaces can be swapped out if needed, extending the life of the flywheel. It's also SFI rated, meaning it meets safety standards for racing applications.

This flywheel is designed for internal balance and features a 168-tooth ring gear, fitting a wide range of Chevrolet vehicles from the mid-50s through the mid-80s, including popular models like the Bel Air, Impala, and C10 trucks. It's a solid choice for anyone looking to improve their vehicle's performance and responsiveness.
