Hi Scott here's my 2-cents-worth...don't do it if you intend to have a
tractable street driver. AutoXing, high speed road, and racing are the
only reasons I would consider using a lightened flywheel...been there,
done that, didn't like it at all. I had to rev up higher every time
from a stop sign, etc. and it just wasn't worth the hassle to me.
Others may disagree,
Jack

Subject: Tranny out and flywheel surfacing/lightening?
So most you folks suggest all new clutch parts since it's out. Sounds
like
good advice.
What about the flywheel? Should I have it lightened? Any luck there?
Anyone
get noticable horsepower boost?
If you reduce flywheel weight is there a recomended machine shop? A
buddy with
a TR had his done locally. Not sure I trust these guys.
My teeth on flywheel look Ok and slight wear (more on one side I think
than
other) but I am sure this should be replaced at the same time, eh?
Perhaps out
o round?
Cheers,
Scott
