This one is really aimed at the Jaguar E-type although given that there are lots its XK straight-six engine in use in kitcars, so I thought it had to be in!

Fidanza has announced a new replacement lightweight flywheel for the engine which offers faster throttle response and quicker acceleration, additional horsepower to the wheels (reduced parasitic losses), smoother, faster gear-shifting, easier braking, better slowing (due to reduced rotational mass), reduced clutch wear and improved efficiency (from better heat dissipation), cost savings and longevity (thanks to Fidanza’s replaceable green friction plate – no need to replace the entire flywheel when worn), the potential for increased fuel economy (if you can keep your foot off the throttle!) and finally, quality and reliability (made in the USA from top-grade materials).

Fidanza flywheels are available for:
1961-64 3.8 litre models – Fidanza part number 119381
1965-71 4.2 litre models – Fidanza part number 119421
