The design of the performance flywheel and clutch for the BMW V8 had to combine all of these characteristics: Lighter weight, no change in pedal effort, durability to eliminate the short lifespan of the original BMW design, quiet operation with minimal gear lash sound, and enhanced power capability. The UUC flywheel and clutch kit solves all of these requirements. The clutch draws from UUC's extensive experience in high performance clutch development and is fitted with an enhanced pressure plate, upgraded friction material, and a sprung-hub disk for quieter operation than a solid hub. The result is a lightweight flywheel/clutch combination that is rattle-free in most installations (variations in transmission wear, condition of fluid, and other factors may cause some cars to experience very slight rattle). The UUC flywheel is built with the same level of technical sophistication and quality that earned UUC a European Car magazine "Select Gear Top 10" award for best products of 2003, and also the SFI race-spec certification. This is the best quality flywheel that can be built, CNC machined 6061-T6 aluminum disk with replaceable 1050 steel friction surface. Correct V8 starter ring and ignition trigger ring for perfect operation. Clutch effort is identical to the original V8 clutch, and feel is even better. With the specific weight and sprung-hub clutch design, typical transmission rattle is dramatically reduced or even nonexistent in some installations. With a significant 13.5lb weight savings in rotating components compared to the original flywheel/clutch package, acceleration and throttle response is noticeably improved.
