Default ws6 lightweight flywheels

I am trying to weigh out my options for flywheels for my 99, I just picked up a GM ls7 clutch kit, so now i need to source a flywheel. I have been looking at the ram, fidanza, but the f1 racing. I had a fidanza flywheel on a bmw and it was great. I also like the F1 because it is billet steel and still light but i cant seem to find much info on them, i dont want to but junk. Let me know what you guys think. I am trying to stick to lightweight, as i have owned many cars with them in the past and dont mind the driveablity.

thanks

I've been using Fidanza in my vehicles for the last 12 years and have never had a problem. When you put one in your bird you will need to tweak the idle transistion tables in your PCM.

Im getting my LS7 Clutch installed now with the Ram Aluminum F/W. According to my scale, this setup with the ARP bolts is actually a few pounds lighter overall than the stock LS1 clutch.

We sell our 18lb Billet Lightweight Flywheel for $349.99 seperately. Of course it can also be had with our Level 1 Clutch Kit for $649.99 shipped with the current sale and the clutch is far superior to an LS7 Feel free to call me with any questions. Chris, 817-750-2000
