Product Description

The **McLeod 563100 Aluminum Flywheel** is a lightweight performance flywheel engineered for **1979-1995 Ford Mustang** models equipped with the 5.0L (302) or 5.8L (351) V8 engines and a manual transmission. CNC-machined from premium 6061-T6 aluminum with a replaceable hardened 1045 steel ring gear, this flywheel dramatically reduces rotational mass - improving throttle response, acceleration, and overall drivability for high-RPM and high-horsepower applications.

Weighing approximately **14 lbs**, the McLeod 563100 comes with both **28 oz and 50 oz bolt-on balance weights** so you can match your engine's balance setup precisely. The flywheel supports **10" and 10.5" clutch disc patterns** including long and diaphragm styles (such as the 10.5" Mustang diaphragm pattern with dowel pins). Its lightweight construction makes it ideal for performance street cars, forced induction builds, and spirited driving - all while maintaining reliable starter engagement and long-term durability. Always verify your engine's crank balance and clutch compatibility before installation.
