RAM Clutches Clutch Flywheel

RAM Clutches Flywheels: Precision-Built for Street, Strip, and Beyond

When it comes to performance flywheels, few names carry the weight — literally and figuratively — of RAM Clutches. Proudly made in the USA since 1971, RAM has spent over five decades engineering flywheels and clutch systems that meet the demands of everything from weekend street cruisers to championship-winning drag race builds. Their clutch flywheel lineup is a direct reflection of that heritage: every unit is precision-machined, surface-ground, and dynamically balanced to exacting tolerances right out of the box.

Billet Steel Flywheels: Inertia and Durability for the Street

RAM's billet steel flywheels are the go-to choice for street-performance applications where smooth launches and low-speed drivability matter most. Each one is manufactured entirely in-house using RAM's complete CNC machining and Blanchard grinding capabilities, ensuring consistent quality and dimensional accuracy. Every steel flywheel features a serviceable ring gear and is SFI-rated, giving builders the confidence that comes with a verified safety specification. For street-driven muscle cars — Camaros, Corvettes, Mustangs, and Challengers — the robust steel construction provides the ideal rotational inertia for confidence-inspiring, predictable engagement.

Billet Aluminum Flywheels: Lightweight Performance for the Track

Where quicker engine acceleration is the priority — drag racing, road racing, or autocross — RAM's billet aluminum flywheels deliver a significant rotational mass advantage. Each aluminum flywheel features a quarter-inch thick steel insert that is surface ground after installation, providing excellent heat dissipation and long service life. Like their steel counterparts, aluminum flywheels include a serviceable ring gear and carry SFI certification. The reduced rotating mass translates directly to faster revving, a clear edge in any performance-minded build.

Application Coverage: LS, LT, Coyote, Hemi, and Tremec Swaps

One of RAM's greatest strengths in the flywheel category is their breadth of application coverage. Whether you're building an LS or LT engine swap, a Ford Coyote-powered project, a Hemi-swapped classic, or a full Tremec transmission conversion, RAM offers application-specific flywheels designed to fit without modification. For Mustang V6 owners, RAM even offers complete kits that eliminate the factory dual-mass flywheel entirely, replacing it with a billet steel unit paired with a high-performance clutch disc and pressure plate. Circle track builds are covered too — RAM's lightweight steel flywheels for 10.5-inch circle track clutches are precision-machined with quick acceleration in mind.

Why RAM Flywheels Are Different

• 100% USA-made: All RAM flywheels are engineered and manufactured in-house at their South Carolina facility.
• SFI-compliant: Every flywheel meets SFI safety specifications for peace of mind on the street or strip.
• Serviceable ring gears: Unlike some competitors, RAM flywheels feature a replaceable ring gear, extending the service life of the unit.
• Precision balancing: Every flywheel is dynamically balanced before leaving the factory, ensuring smooth, vibration-free operation.
• Two material options: Choose billet steel for street drivability or billet aluminum for lightweight, track-focused performance.

Whether you're upgrading a classic muscle car, completing a modern engine swap, or building a dedicated racer, RAM Clutches flywheels are engineered to be the foundation of a reliable, high-performance drivetrain.
