I was in search of one so I was browsing around for the best parts and stumbled across mustangsunlimited.com and they have a 28oz and 50oz Procomp billet steel flywheels for $115 and I just picked up the 50oz for $98!! Wow! Go check it out if your looking for it because I almost spent $250 plus on one...- James

I'm not sure I want a $100 Chinese machined flywheel between me and a wheelchair.Originally posted by racrguyWhat's your beef with NPR, because their listeners are typically more informed than others?Originally posted by racrguyVoting is a constitutional right, overthrowing the government isn't.

Can't be any worse than the Chinese junk that autozone/OReilly/Pepboys sells....and I've never seen one of those come apart and I've put together many cars. Honestly I'd be more worried about it slinging off a weight if it has removable ones, if so pull them off and check the hardware and loctite back together.Last edited by slowturbocar; 01-01-2016, 06:45 PM.

I'm not saying they are shit, but I do know that clutch explosions are no laughing matter. Do the Procomp parts have a history of being crap? I know the heads are cheap but a lot of people love them after putting good hardware in them.
In regards to a flywheel, I would err on the side of safety. Don Garlits is missing all of his toes and half a foot from a clutch explosion. That's what caused him to go to rear engine fuel cars and everyone else followed.
Much safer when all of that is happening behind you.
When the government pays, the government controls.

Two years ago I was in the same boat, being budget minded I bought one of those. Looked great but the bolt holes to the crank were so oversized you could bolt it on in any configuration.
When I called to return it, the "Technical" guy told me that was ok and I could bolt it on anyway it would go.
Yeah, ok, I'll return it anyway.
