1996-2017 Mustang (4.6L/5.0L/5.4L) McLeod Steel 8 Bolt Flywheel 463458

High-Performance McLeod Flywheel Replacement

If you're still running the stock flywheel on your Mustang after making modifications that are generating a lot more horsepower, you should consider upgrading to a flywheel that can handle all of that extra power and torque. A Billet Steel 8-Bolt Flywheel from McLeod Racing could be just what you need. McLeod's flywheels are great for street racers and those who require accuracy and dependability in shifting and handling. The steel flywheel is perfect for street applications where easy stop light acceleration is desired and for launching a heavy car with a smaller engine with less torque and horsepower. Since the flywheel is the foundation of your clutch system, this upgrade will enable you to harness all that extra power produced by your performance modifications and ensure smooth shifting. To a large extent the amount of wear and tear on your flywheel determines the life of your clutch as well, so in many cases upgrading them both at the same time is the best way to get the most for your time and money.

Precise Construction

McLeod is known for designing their Flywheels with precision in order to create a perfectly flat/parallel mating surface. The weight distribution is balanced to within 1/2 oz-inch of factory specifications. This heavy steel flywheel does a great job of storing power for quick launches and is recommended for high-powered Mustangs. Each 8-bolt flywheel has a 1/4" steel friction insert that aids in heat dissipation.

Fits The Following Mustangs:

• 1996-2010 -- Mustang 4.6L with aftermarket 8-bolt crankshaft
• 2011-2017 -- Mustang GT 5.0L

Exceeds SFI Specifications

McLeod's Billet Steel 8-Bolt Flywheel is a great replacement for your factory cast flywheel in high horsepower and competition applications. Cast flywheels are not explosion proof and can be dangerous when used in high-RPM applications. CNC-machined, not cast, McLeod engineered this flywheel to exceed SFI Specifications.

4.6L V8 Fitment: Mustang GTs with a 2V or 3V 4.6L V8 came from the factory with 6-bolt crankshafts, and this flywheel will not fit vehicles utilizing the factory internals. The flywheel will only fit 2V or 3V 4.6L Mustangs with aftermarket 8-bolt crankshafts.
