Duratec to type 9. ( why a st150 flywheel)
ryanill - 13/1/14 at 07:13 PM

Hi all
Think that the title pretty much gives this one away

I'm in the planning stages of a duratec build. I Searched the forum for whitch clutch parts to use to join it with a type 9.Just wondering why it has to be a st150 flywheel.
Can a STD flywheel not be fitted ? As a st150 engine is a duratec ?
How is the st150 flywheel different to a everyday 2.0 duratec flywheel ?
Cheers guys

Single mass ie solid as apposed to a dual mass flywheel found on the others.

Std fly wheel = dule mass
St150 fly wheel = solid once pice .

Glad that was resolved quickly

You can use an early Zetec flywheel also.

Ah that's a useful bit of info too. Any ideas of the years that the zetechs where fitted with that type ?

That's a new one on me but the zetec E is the same for all of them. From the Silvertops to the Blacktops and these fit the st170, that's badged as a Duratec but isn't ?

I think that flackmonky said on his build thread that the st150 fly wheel in only 1 of 2 kg heavier than the litend ones as well.

ST170 Badged as a duratec but a zetec bottom end and zetec-ish head.

Here's the part number for the fly wheel, taken from Flaks write up, so you can look it up.

So is it the st170 (zetec) flywheel that also works aswell as the st150 ?
Also thanks for the number big-vee-twin. Just to clarify is that the zetec flywheel part number ?

Cheers fir all the info guys I know this is a subject that's been talked about Befor

I have looked through my notes, following BW comment, its the clutch pressure plate and not flywheel that can come from early Zetec.

Although I am sure that fly must be fitted to different engines.

The st170 flywheel is dual mass as well.
