168-Tooth Externally Balanced Forged Billet Steel Flywheel

The GForce 168110SSE-400 is a performance flywheel specifically engineered for 1970-1980 Chevrolet Small Block (SBC) engines with 400 cubic inch displacement. It features a robust forged billet steel construction for durability and a 168-tooth ring gear, ensuring compatibility with specific starter types. This flywheel is externally balanced, often referred to as Detroit balanced, which is crucial for proper engine operation in the targeted application. This flywheel is designed to accommodate both 10.5" and 11" clutch disc sizes, offering flexibility for various clutch setups. It works with diaphragm, long, and Borg & Beck style pressure plates, providing options for different clutch engagement characteristics. For safety and racing compliance, it carries an SFI Certified 1.1 rating. The flywheel has a substantial weight of 30 lbs, which is beneficial for applications requiring increased torque for street driving or drag racing due to its rotating inertia, helping the vehicle move better from a stop, maintain a smooth idle, facilitate easier gear shifting, and prevent RPMs from dropping too quickly. Additional specifications include compatibility with a 2-piece rear main seal style. Please note that mounting hardware is not included with this flywheel and must be acquired separately. G Force emphasizes that their products are performance-engineered by enthusiasts who understand the importance of strength and durability, aiming to provide more performance from your vehicle.
