Andy , thanks for the info.
as for flywheel function and balance shaft wear, you are correct.
but the throttle response more than makes up for it.
( There are no free rides in a lot of engine / drive train mods.)
My intended use is autocross and some country driving. Stop light , bumper to bumper , a lightened flywheel would impair smoothness.
In the 70's I ran a B/ Gas small block dragster that needed all the flywheel effect I could get. I ran a GM supplied 90! lb wheel. The heaviest made with a starter gear. Un geared , they even made bigger ones!
Thanks again for the info. My clutch is on order and I will be turning and balancing this weekend.
