A vast improvement in shifting operation and a huge extension in clutch life all in one!!! The original clutch & flywheel package for the V8 Vantage is heavy, and not particularly well known for longevity. Fortunately, Velocity Automotive Performance has put together this incredible replacement package. Our original package included a 1-piece CNC billet steel flywheel, however an investment in a casting has allowed us to offer the same great product, at the same weight and performance but at a lower price. Benefits: - Weight reduction of 7lbs - Increase of 10HP at the rear wheels - Faster Shifting - Vastly Improved throttle response - Dramatically increased longevity compared to the Standard Parts
