Message	as the reason a fidanza goes to shit so easily is because it is an entire ring joined with screws to the flywheel. When the friction ring expands, it is held down at points around the ring and it must give somewhere. The Al doesn't expand nearly as quickly and the ring accordions on you. Seperate smaller pads will expand the same, but since they aren't all joined in a ring, they wont warp up. I'd imagine that the two fasteners out on the edges of each puck are actually slghtly sitting in oval holes to allow for some degree of expansion/contraction differences between the metals and the center fastners are in concentric holes and act as positioning anchors. : Which is better and why? : Fidanza Aluminum Flywheel Sale Price: $399 (for TT, 12 lbs) : : RPS Billet Aluminum Flywheel Sale Price: $525 (shipping included) : : Is the RPS so much better as to demand roughly $125 more? : Oh, yeah, here's the hot naked chicks: : [ ashleypowers.com ] [ agpowers@bellsouth.net ] When pigs dance, you better get it on video...
