A couple of considerations. ZR-1 PP’s are discounted. Although Jerry appears to have new old stock (I think) and I have a used one (pictured). PP’s sold today are the LT1 Version that is identical other than mounting flange thickness which is thinner. The difference is minimal and they work fine. There’s a thread here where Jerry outlines the details and the bolt issues. Worth reading the whole thread.
http://www.zr1.net/forum/showthread....late+thickness

Longer bolts are currently unavailable specifically for this application unless you want to try and spec them yourself. The Fidanza will have to be drilled and tapped for the longer bolts if you go that route. As I understand it Haibeck uses the stock bolts with the ZR-1 PP on a Fidanza FW.

Just some food for thought.

I recently had my clutch/flywheel asm replaced by Mark. He highly recommended that I not use the lighter weight PP (I supplied one). He said that they were not rated to the higher RPMs that a ZR-1 requires. I can't remember what else he said about them. I got lucky, my take off PP was in great condition, so I got to reuse it.
I was replacing my aluminum Fidanza flywheel with an OEM Dual Mass flywheel for driveability reasons. I love the DM flywheel/clutch asm, all of my noise & vibration issues went away.
