Fidanza
Fidanza Engineering has been manufacturing lightweight aluminum flywheel assemblies and performance clutch components for over three decades, building a reputation among serious engine builders and drag racers for flywheels that reduce rotational mass dramatically compared to OEM cast iron units while maintaining the precision balance and surface finish required for competition use. The company's 2-piece aluminum flywheel design uses a replaceable friction surface insert that can be resurfaced or replaced without requiring a new flywheel assembly, lowering the long-term cost of ownership on cars that see frequent clutch changes. Fidanza products are used across import performance, domestic muscle, and road racing applications where reducing drivetrain inertia directly improves throttle response and rev speed. This collection covers Fidanza's complete product range for domestic and import performance applications.Popular UpgradesFidanza's aluminum flywheel series for the Honda B16, B...

Flywheels
A performance flywheel reduces rotational mass, allowing the engine to rev faster and respond more quickly to throttle input. Lightweight flywheels are a popular upgrade for track builds and sport driving applications where improved throttle response matters. Popular Upgrades Top-selling flywheel upgrades include lightweight aluminum flywheels for naturally aspirated four and six cylinder performance builds, single-mass flywheel conversion kits for dual-mass flywheel replacement on diesel trucks, and high-torque steel flywheels for drag racing and clutch upgrades. What is the difference between a single-mass and dual-mass flywheel? A single-mass flywheel is a solid disc that transmits engine torque directly to the clutch. A dual-mass flywheel uses two plates with a spring dampening system to absorb drivetrain vibration, which is common on diesel and direct-injection engines. Single-mass conversions are popular for performance use but may increase cabin NVH. Will a lighter flywheel a...
