The Jaguar V12 from 1971 to 1995 was one of the greatest internal combustion engines ever made; it powered iconic cars such as the E-Type (XK-E), XJ12, XJ-S and several successful touring cars as well as Le Mans 24-hour GT cars. Plus, of course, a good few kitcars have been powered by it, too. Including more than a few DAX Cobras back in the day.

However, the un-initiated may have been put off when it comes to tuning by the apparent complexity of the engine

Fidanza has come up with a solution to extract more performance from this powerhouse without touching the engine itself. A Fidanza lightweight flywheel will extract more performance from the power the engine already has.

A Fidanza lightweight flywheel is simple to install when the clutch is replaced and will bring the following benefits:

• Faster throttle response and quicker acceleration
  • Additional horsepower to the wheels (reduced parasitic losses)
  • Smoother, faster 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)
  • Potential for increased fuel economy (if you can keep your foot off the gas!)
  • Quality and reliability (made in the USA from top-grade materials)

A Fidanza lightweight flywheel for the 1971 – 1995 Jaguar V12 can be ordered as part number 119531 and retails at USD$499.99 plus shipping and tax.
