Clutch Masters Flywheel Chevrolet Corvette 5.7L LS1
97-04 An excellent performance upgrade. Lightened steel
flywheels are susceptible to shattering under aggressive driving conditions.
Because aluminum is lighter than steel, we are able to produce aluminum
flywheels utilizing stock dimensions. Aluminum flywheels are perfect for road
racers looking for quicker revs. It is also a nice complement for turbocharged
cars experiencing lag. Flywheel Features:
-Reduced mass equals increased
acceleration.
-A lightweight flywheel works particularly well with
turbo-charged engines because it reduces typical turbo lag.
-Increased
supercharger efficiency due to less parasitic drag on the crank.
-Improved
mid-range torque in a normally aspirated engine due to not having to overcome
the heavy weight of a stock flywheel.
-CM uses only 6061-T6 aircraft grade or
better billet aluminum in the manufacturer of its flywheels.
-CM uses High
Carbon steel for the friction surface. (Replaceable)
-CM uses an OEM steel
ring gear secured by bolts.
-CM offers a limited lifetime warranty.
-CM
Billet Aluminum Flywheels meet SFI Spec 1.1 or 1.2
About Manufacturer: Clutch

Clamping Force vs. Pedal Pressure Designing heavy duty and high performance clutches with
a very high clamp load and incredible coefficient of friction is a fairly simple
engineering task. To do so without increasing pedal pressure has not been so
easy. Even the education process of changing opinions that an increase in pedal
pressure must accompany a high performance clutch with increased clamping force
has been difficult. Clutch Masters, after 28 years as a premier manufacturer
of fine quality clutches, has taken this experience and a clean sheet of paper
to re-engineer their line of performance clutches to address these problems. The
proof of this success is now available from Clutch Masters as a complete line of
clutch systems for high performance street and racing use. It is the first major
breakthrough in performance clutches in over two decades. |
