You should see this fantastic Fidanza flywheel I have here...

If you end up doing a clutch, I'd strongly advocate you remove it....

If you have a light flywheel and a upgraded clutch the clutch will grab very hard and the engine won't have enough momentum and is VERY easy to stall.

I do have a upgraded clutch with my flywheel. I stalled my car hundreds of times in the first month but I've had it in since March and now I love it I'm used to it and it really grabs hard. So overall it was a good buy after you get used to it.

Actually it has nothing to do with power levels.

I have an older 4 cylinder Grand Am which this happened on - it's about 200 hp;
I had heard of it happening on another GA before - but after inspecting mine, I had thought it was a case of crappy luck for the other GA owner...
Apparently not so much...
I've since read of, or heard of several other examples of this happening...

Hopefully you don't see this first hand, but if you pull the transmission for any reason, I'd strongly encourage you to remove it...

I'll have pics up on photobucket within a couple days.

Weird I've got one on my truck with a build 4.3 V6 on spray and now on this Cobalt I do believe that they can break but just thought that it was weird cause I thought they were approved for drag racing SFI or something

With the right mods and lots of cooling mods you could make around 400 with an aggressive tune I bet
