Reply to "Flywheel and clutch"

The people who balance these assemblies want to do it the easiest way. That is taking weight off of the flywheel and balancer.

Iron flywheels usually show cracks even new from the casting process. They could develop into failure lines. Steel doesn't normally do that.

It's more important in drag racing when you are reving the engine and dropping the clutch. That hits the flywheel like a sledge hammer.

The 4v engine was built with "competition potential".

You don't need to do a lot to them to race them BUT you do need to do some things.

The big balancer is important to the Cleveland to race it. On the street? Nah.

Those guides are pretty aren't they?
