I have a free SVT flywheel and differential to use.
Is the SVT flywheel lighter than my stock zetec flywheel? Is the differential stronger in any way than my stock diff?If so, will either of them fit my mtx-75?

Don't take what I'm saying as gospel, but when I tried getting the clutch off a buddy's SVT, Terry Haines told me it wouldn't work. I seem to remember there being significant differences in 2.0 and 2.5 flywheels.
Don't know about the diff, though.

I thought that it would be the same since they are both mtx-75.  But what would I know I drive a slushbox.

both clutch and flywheel on the Zetec are different and will not work you w3ould bee a flywheel for a focus to make it work.... clutch too.

Even if you don't have the answer, you certainly have to admire the problem.

so a fidanza flywheel for a non-SVT focus would fit? Because I found them for $350...:

Are they really 8.5LBS?? The "CONTOUR" ones are approx 11LBS, I thought.

yep that one should work... however I really don't see the need to have the engine rev up faster mine climbs the RPMs quick enough. also the llighter flywheel is a trade off... better off the line but not as good after the car is moving... the never ending debate which is better lighter or heaver.
