McLeod Steel Flywheel Chevrolet 1955-85 2Pc Crank 20 153

This McLeod steel flywheel is designed for Chevrolet vehicles with a 2-piece rear main seal and 153-tooth ring gear, fitting a wide range of models from 1955 through 1985, and even some later applications. It's a solid choice if you're looking to maintain a factory-like feel for everyday driving or for off-road use like rock crawling. The goal here is to give you that easy acceleration from a stop that you want without the harshness of a super-lightweight racing flywheel.

McLeod builds these flywheels from billet alloy steel, which is a strong material that can handle the demands of regular use. The ring gear is made from hardened 1045 steel, ensuring it holds up well to starter engagement over time. This particular flywheel weighs 20 pounds, offering a good balance between drivability and performance for street applications. It's also SFI rated, meaning it meets safety standards for racing if you ever decide to take your vehicle to the track.

Keep in mind that if your engine is externally balanced, you'll need to add the McLeod CW kit (part number 560222) to ensure proper operation. This flywheel is designed for internal balance applications.
