Fastener holes and chamfers have been CNC machined for accuracy and military grade fasteners are included.<\/p>\n\n\n\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 a 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\n\n\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\n\n\n<p>The Fidanza lightweight aluminum 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\n\n\n<p>Fidanza can also supply a similar flywheel for 1966-1974 MG Midget\/Sprite -1275cc.<br>Order as part number 126751 &#8211; $403.47 plus shipping and import tax.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For more information on Fidanza\u2019s great products visit www.fidanza.com or contact sales@fidanza.com<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There must be quite a few Austin Healey Sprite owners who are preparing their cars for the first outing of the year.
