This is more like it. The only thing I do not know about the Barchetta flywheel is whether it is a split one. If this is the case then your only option is to make it from a billet.

Hi
Whats that in English oldschool ?

Thanks for your time

A split flywheel is made out of two parts which are vulcanised together. The reason for this is to work as an antiresonance/vibration limiter. It is next to impossible to mill it properly if it is split.

All other flywheels are single piece ones. In the Fiat group it all of a sudden overcomes the engineers to implement such measures whether needed or not. And some months later they might get the idea to reverse it because it is too costly.
