So, it\u2019s just the right time to consider installing a Fidanza lightweight flywheel.<\/p>\n<p>A Fidanza lightweight aluminium flywheel will improve performance and acceleration because replacing the heavy standard flywheel dramatically improves the power-to-weight ratio.<\/p>\n<p>The flywheel is made from high-quality machined 6061 T6 aluminium with a 1050 steel friction surface. Fastener holes and chamfers have been CNC machined for accuracy and military-grade fasteners are included.<\/p>\n<p>The steel friction surface of the flywheel (shown in the image with its green protective coating) is heat-treated for optimum grip and long service life. It is also replaceable; when the surface eventually becomes worn it can be changed without having to replace the whole flywheel.<\/p>\n<p>Every Fidanza flywheel application is a unique design. Each design takes into account: overall balance, critical clearances, tensile strength, heat dissipation and optimum weight saving. Thereby a careful balance is struck between reducing the original weight and maintaining a smooth idle for day-to-day street driving.<\/p>\n<p>This Fidanza aluminium flywheel for 1961-1963 Austin Healey 948cc Sprite can be ordered directly from Fidanza.com as part number 126481 at $415.73 plus shipping and import tax.<\/p>\n<p>Fidanza can also supply a similar flywheel for 1966-1974 MG Midget\/Sprite -1275cc.<br \/>\nOrder as part number 126751 \u2013 $403.47 plus shipping and import tax.<\/p>\n<p>For more information on Fidanza\u2019s great products visit <a href=\"http:\/\/www.fidanza.com\/\">www.fidanza.com<\/a> <strong>ENDS.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>There must be quite a few Austin Healey Sprite owners \u2013 or kits and conversions based on the car &#8211; who are preparing their cars <a class=\"mh-excerpt-more\" href=\"https:\/\/tkc.grainwork.co.uk\/index.php\/2022\/02\/18\/sprite-flywheel\/\" title=\"SPRITE FLYWHEEL\">[&#8230;]<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-23092","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tkc.grainwork.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/23092","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tkc.grainwork.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tkc.grainwork.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tkc.grainwork.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tkc.grainwork.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=23092"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tkc.grainwork.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/23092\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tkc.grainwork.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=23092"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tkc.grainwork.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=23092"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tkc.grainwork.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=23092"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
