McLeod Flywheel Aluminum Chevy LS Mtr 1997Up .400in Thicker 12in Street Insert 168

McLeod Racing has been a well-known name in performance clutch components for a long time, and their aluminum flywheels are a prime example of that expertise. This particular flywheel is built for Chevy LS engines from 1997 and up, offering a .400-inch thicker face and a 12-inch street insert. It's designed to handle the demands of higher horsepower applications and engines that see rapid RPM changes, making it a solid choice for builds that push the limits.

Constructed from 6061 T6 billet aluminum, this flywheel is significantly lighter than a stock cast iron unit, which helps your engine rev up more quickly. It also features a replaceable steel friction plate, so you can refresh the surface without replacing the entire flywheel. The hardened 1045 steel ring gear is there to ensure reliable starting engagement for years to come. This flywheel is SFI rated, meaning it meets safety standards for racing applications.

This flywheel is designed to fit a wide range of vehicles, including popular models like the Chevrolet Corvette, Camaro, and Silverado trucks. It's a direct replacement for your existing flywheel, though you'll want to ensure your clutch assembly is compatible with the .400-inch thicker face. If you're building a performance LS engine that needs a flywheel that can keep up, this McLeod unit is a strong contender.
