Last I checked on CED their was special pricing on the lsj flywheel at 140 bucks or so. I bought an lnf flywheel off mongorat for 60 bucks and am waiting for the machine shop to call me saying either they fixed the dowel, or fucked it up.

Either you have a special access code on their website, or it's been a while since you've been on because the LSJ flywheel is $430 before shipping on CED right now.

GM trippled the price on the LSJ flywheel a few months ago. Just before they changed the price i happend to order about a dozen of them as they were on back order at the time. We didn't know the price was going to change but with GM the price listed at the time of order is what you pay. The started coming in a few weeks later so we offered the old price on the ones we paid the lower price on. Well those are gone so we are back to the current price. If ZZP is still showing the old price the will find out really quick and im sure they will update their site.

Don't ask me why the price changed or is what it is. There are so many other parts that the price doesn't make sense like the 3 bar sensors are $17 bucks and the stock sensors are $65 / $70

Oh wait, maybe I shouldnt of typed that, GM may see it and raise those prices too.

I am seriously considering buying one. Especially since they lowered their LDK engine by $500 since I bought mine, I'd like to make some money back:S

Only if you need it. If you were planning on reselling it then don't bother.

Was never my plan to resell it even if it was oem. I was going to keep it for when i did do my clutch. My clutch is fine atm but i would be ready for the most part. So a good buy or not?

They dont have the GM OEM one anymore its a aftermarket part now. I was told is identical to the GM but it doesnt have the GM thing on the flywheel and i could use the money now. The flywheel i dont need it yet i got it because i wanted to get a oem part and be ready when i would need it

I'm using an $100 aftermarket flywheel from rock auto matched to a heavy sprung KY stg3 clutch. Been doing lots of 40mph 3rd gear pulls with the 445 trans while spiking tq with stock turbo. No slip at all. I would normally spend the extra ~$50 from CED for an OEM part but now $400+ for OE flywheel, no way.
