Hi All - trying to figure out what flywheel people would recommend. I will need to purchase a new flywheel (can't find the original one - though I'm sure it'll turn up when the project is done!) Seems there's billet steel and aluminum flywheels, but they're all rather light at 11 pounds (billet steel) and 9-10 pounds (aluminum.) While allowing the engine to rev freely is nice, I'd like something that will impart enough inertia to get the car rolling without a lot of revs. Plus I'm mostly convinced to use a SPEC Stage 2+ clutch, so not much slipping of the clutch is available from what I understand.
Any thoughts / recommendations on aluminum vs steel for a weekend and occasional track car? Or would taking a stock 20.5 pound flywheel and having it turned down and lightened to roughly 18 - 19 pounds work?
