[TR] flywheel lightening ty randall.........

[Tony Drews]

Unless it's significantly out of balance, don't worry about it.  I 
don't think the factory balanced all of that stuff, and the engines 
lasted just fine.  We've run racing engines for years without THAT 
being an issue - of course the bearings don't last long when racing anyway...
