Does anyone have a list of manufactors of alum. flywheel makers for 1 peice rear mains, and a t5? i went to the thunderracing website, and they show one, are there more than that, or is that the only company that makes them for our cars?

Centerforce; McLeod; Hays; and Fidanza all make aluminum flywheels. The one on Thunderracing is dual mass for a L98 Corvette. You would need a different Fidanza flywheel for a 3rd gen L98.
It is the one listed for a 1-piece rear main seal. Part Number: 198531

ok, so since one is listed as a 153 tooth, and the other is listed as a l98 aplication, can i assume that the flywheel used on the t5 in f-bodys is not 153 tooth? also the flywheel i saw on thunderracing, was listed under the 82-92 camaro section, so is that just a mistake on their webpage?

also, i have an l03, t5 combo, i doubt that would make any diffrence as opposed to a l98 but i want to make sure i am looking for the right thing, my new DF clutch should be here this week and i want to put a flywheel on at the same time.

thanks for the help in advance.

The 153 tooth is the only ones that will fit in the T5 bellhousing.
I'm using the Hayes #10-530, 30 lb Billet Flywheel with my DF and T5, $229 from Summit.

ok, so what is the diffrence between the ones listed there for l98, and the 1 peice, 153 tooth? i am still confused on the diffrence.

Just looked at that page.
I'm at a loss. Don't know what the difference is.
They both must be 153 tooth, but not sure of the difference.
Call them.

Just a guess, but the vettes having different trannys they could have had different spline counts.

10,000 RPM also make a worthy unit as well as the clutches that go with them.

When I ordered my Fidanza flywheel I actually called Fidanza and the information I gave you is the information they gave me. They told me that part number in question for our cars is the 1-piece and the other one is for L98 Corvettes. Dual mass actually means it is a thicker, heavier flywheel. IIRC. I have the regualr 153 tooth 1-piece flywheel sitting in my garage waiting to go in.
