Flexplate JW Performance The Wheel Flywheel Flexplate SFI Approved
High Performance and racing SFI flywheel, SFI flex plate
technology had not kept pace with increases in engine power advances, that is, until JW
Performance decided to produce the best possible automatic transmission flywheel. The
resulting product line is labeled, "THE WHEEL". This is the ultimate flywheel,
SFI flexplate for use in high performance street, strip and all out race cars.
THE WHEEL has become the best known, most dependable,
highest contingency money earning flex plate flywheel on the market today. JW Performance
continues to refine and offer additional models to help tailor your vehicles performance
even further. JW has taken the flexplate, and turned it into a safety and
performance enhancing part, instead of just a piece of metal to hook your torque converter
to your crank with. All models of THE WHEEL are fully SFI certified and have a replaceable
ring gear. Most models are now available in both light and heavy versions. The heavy
models smooth out engine idle with big cams, and offer harder launches and more rpms
during the gear shifts. The light weight flywheel models allow for faster turbo spool up
and improved engine acceleration, and deceleration for street, circle track and road race
applications. The light weight models are generally 2 pounds lighter than the same part
number heavy version.
These JW Performance Automatic Transmissions flywheel flexplates feature a
double welded, high quality ring gear and the highest quality steel centers. These SFI
approved automatic transmission flexplates are designed to take the punishment of today's
high horsepower, big torque engines in everything including street, strip, street rods,
hot rods, drag race, oval track, road race, off road and pulling competition cars and
trucks.
In addition to all of these great features, JW Performance also pays
contingency money for the use of THE WHEEL flywheel flex plate in many sanctioned racing
events. Why mess around with a flexplate using 30 year old technology.
Step up to THE WHEEL today, and have a safer, quicker and potentially contingency
money earning SFI flywheel in your high performance car or truck. These
are all current production and have the most up to date SFI decals possible.
NOTE: A SFI certified flywheel flex plate is required on drag racing
vehicles running 11.99 and quicker in the 1/4 mile and 7.49 and quicker in the 1/8 mile,
or any vehicle exceeding 135mph.

Dodge Plymouth Chrysler Mopar Engine to GM Transmission These Mopar Flexplates are neutral balance. If you are using a crankshaft
requiring
external balance, such as one of the cast crank engines, the external weights will
need to be installed on the torque converter as they are not available on these
flexplates.
We STRONGLY recommend that the Ultra Bell be used in these set ups instead of
an adapter plate.

with any
6 bolt Mopar V8 crankshaft and a Mopar 727 or 904 Automatic transmission and
torque converter. This plate is for 11", 10", 9" and 8" High
Performance and racing

power to the transmission. This is a neutral balance flexplate.
