RAM Billet Steel Flywheels

Cast flywheels are not explosion-proof and can be dangerous when used in high performance applications at higher rpm. RAM billet steel flywheels are recommended as replacements for factory-cast flywheels in high performance and racing vehicles. Made in America and produced in-house, all RAM flywheels are computer balanced within a 1/2 oz., surface ground (which results an optimum mating surface), and are ready to run out of the box. They're better for launching heavier drag race cars and provide better drivability in street vehicles. SFI-approved, RAM billet steel flywheels are CNC-machined from certified materials. Order the model recommended for your year/make and engine application. Technical note: As they spin, heavy flywheels store more energy than lighter ones. Engine and gearing combinations that require more power or inertia to make the car launch without bogging the motor need heavier flywheels. However, heavier flywheels accelerate slower. Lighter flywheels create less inertia at launch, but accelerate quicker through the gears. When choosing a flywheel, you must consider the car's weight, operating rpm of the engine, and, most importantly, the gearing. Insufficient gearing will cause an engine with too light of a flywheel to "bog" on launch.

RAM Billet Aluminum Flywheels

If you're building an all-out competition car, then you need a lightweight flywheel that will allow the engine to rev quicker and not eat up a lot of power. RAM billet aluminum flywheels greatly reduce rotating weight to permit quicker revving and higher power output, but still retain enough mass to resist heat distortion that could adversely affect clutch performance. RAM billet aluminum flywheels are made in America and produced in house. All RAM flywheels are computer-balanced within a 1/2 oz., surface ground (which results an optimum mating surface), and are ready to run out of the box. SFI-approved, these flywheels are CNC-machined from certified materials and have rugged steel friction-surface inserts. RAM's billet aluminum flywheels feature a 1/4 in. thick friction insert to dissipate heat away without distortion. Technical note: As it spins, a heavy flywheel stores more energy than a lighter one. Engine and gearing combinations that require more power or inertia to make the car launch without bogging the motor need heavier flywheels. However, heavier flywheels accelerate slower. Lighter flywheels create less inertia at launch, but accelerate quicker through the gears. To effectively use a lighter flywheel, you must consider the car's weight, operating rpm of the engine, and, most importantly, the gearing. Too little gear will cause the engine to 'bog' on launch.

ATI Superplate Flexplates

ATI Superplate Flexplates were developed in ATI's tradition of staying ahead of the rampant increases in horsepower that are common in the performance industry today. Superplates are manufactured from a super-strong material to withstand thousands of cycles. They are laser-machined rather than stamped to avoid the heat and stress stamping inflicts. The crank bolt holes are bored in position to exacting tolerances in both size and location on CNC machines. Superplates use the grip length of the crank bolts as dowels to prevent the plate from moving under high-torque conditions. Unlike billet plates that violate the "flex principle" of a flexplate, Superplates flex like OEM plates, absorbing the numerous machining tolerances that exist in our non-exact world. Additional features of ATI Superplate Flexplates include: * Neutral-balanced for use on internally balanced engines * Exceed SFI 29.1 and 29.2 ratings * 90,000 lbs. tensile strength * 80,000 lbs. yield strength * Six or eight crank bolts (varies by application)
