I'm not running the Fidanza, IIRC it is way too light for drag. Mine came from a company called Design Products in CA. I don't have the number on this computer but you can search the forum and find it!

The machine shop we refer customers to is: Design Products, Huntington Beach, CA 714-892-1513--ask for Kathy or Don.

The guy was cool as ****, he should be able to help you out. IIRC the flywheel was $650.

I did the 5.5 bs. Have to grind a bolt head, that's it. I rolled my fenders ut not sure it was needed. If I did it again I would go 6.5 and add a spacer. Should be a tad better fit and allow a wider tire.

Might sell my rears to go this route, let m know if interested.

For what size tire? 5.5 will work with slight grind to a few bolt heads. 6.5 will allow a wider tire but besides the grind on the bolts you will need a spacer to bring it back out some but allows a 26/11/15..... If u only plan to run a 26/10/15 then the 5.5 bs is fine.
