I have my stock flywheel I will give you for real cheap. Only draw back is it's steel, not aluminum. I'm pretty sure it should match up.

You can resurface the stock flywheel one time.

It should. If you are planning on modding the car that stock clutch wont last too long.

How did that setup workout? Ram recommends steel on the HD.
I had just about zero chatter on the Power Grip HD with steel.

i loved my fidanza alum flywheel and you can pick them up from companies on ebay for a very good price , but as for boost and alum flywheel idk. n/a i loved mine always wondered how it would act with boost. Not sure if the car would just spin up to fast and kill the tires etc or what

it chattered alittle when it was hot in 1st or reverse. nothing major but it did do it. i think my 3.90s helped a bit. besides that i loved the clutch (thats why i have a brand new one that i bought) and it worked great, even when i dumped the clutch at 5500-6000 rpms on et streets.

Cool. I had about zero chatter with the steel flywheel, but killed the clutch quick.
