    US Flywheel on Euro S50?

    Hi All,

    I have done a bit of research but can't find an answer!

    Can the lighthened US flywheels for a US S52 Engine (eg F1 racing, Fidanza) and associated clutch and pressure plates be fitted to the S50b32 euro engine.

    If they can be fitted what if any issues are there? Ie does it need a different thrust bearing?

    The car will be used as a race car.

    Thanks

    Brian

      Mike,

      Thanks for the response. Which size did you use:

      Flywheel p/n Clutch Size: FW Wt.
      520-010-114 114mm / 4.50" 5.5 lbs.
      520-010-140 140mm / 5.50" 5.5 lbs.

      520-010-184 184mm / 7.25" 6.0 lbs.
      520-010-200 200mm / 7.87" 7.0 lbs

      Cheers

      Brian
