Tilton Engineering 19008 Button Flywheel Ford Small Block V8 7.25in Clutch

The Tilton Engineering 19008 is a billet steel button flywheel designed for Ford small block V8 engines, engineered to work in conjunction with a flexplate and a 7.25-inch (184mm) Tilton button clutch. At just 3.8 lbs with a 29.5 lb-in² moment of inertia, this flywheel delivers a significant reduction in rotating mass compared to a stock OEM unit, helping improve throttle response and engine acceleration.

The 19008 serves as the clutch friction surface, with the flexplate providing the starter ring gear. This button flywheel and flexplate configuration offers a cost-effective lightweight solution for performance applications not exceeding 8,000 RPM. The flywheel measures .87 inches thick and features a .100-inch step machined into the friction surface for proper clutch engagement.

Key Features:

• Button-style flywheel for use with Tilton 7.25-inch clutch systems
• Machined from high-quality preheat-treated billet steel alloy for maximum strength and low inertia
• Surface heat-treated after machining for maximum durability of the clutch friction surface
• Engineered using Finite Element Analysis (FEA) to optimize strength and inertia
• Precision machined to tight tolerances for smooth operation and proper fitment
• Neutral balance with .100-inch step for clutch friction surface
• Clutch mounting via through holes accepting AN5 bolts inserted from the engine side
• Designed for use with a compatible flexplate (sold separately) which provides the ring gear
• Weight: 3.8 lbs | Moment of Inertia: 29.5 lb-in²
• Thickness: .87 inches

Tilton Engineering has been manufacturing high-performance flywheels since 1973, and their components are trusted in NASCAR Cup, Grand-Am DP, and countless other professional racing applications. The 19008 provides a proven, race-proven solution for Ford small block V8 builds requiring a compact, lightweight clutch package.
