Now that's what I call a lightened flywheel
42.3 lbs lighter is a worthwhile saving! Goes back some tine 12yrs and no comment on whether it worked or not.

Cant think why ?
I made an ally one for a V6'd Fury I did that was 7lbs - about 21lbs lighter than stock and that drove fine .
I do have a flexplate from an auto that is just a lightweight ring gear carrier - I'm thinking of making a minimal clutch holder in ally just to
see how light I can make it .
Its cuz I is blond , innit

Will weld for food......

I'd be interested to know if it still being used or how long it lasted.
Also how easily the assembly balanced when it was first assembled.
