Re: What flywheel
I'd say get the stock one turned. Thats just me though.
I'm using a stock unit on my built setups.
Twin discs come with lightened flywheels. They don't hurt but I don't have the money to get one.

Re: What flywheel
Either one will work. I still think it's really stupid that most flywheels are only marketed by weight and not inertia. You can't tell anything from a weight, because you have no idea where that weight is on the flywheel. You could make a 15 lb flywheel and a 7 lb flywheel with the same inertia, and if the inertia is the same they would respond exactly the same, which makes knowing their weight completely useless.
These aren't flywheels, but they obviously understand what I'm talking about. See the inertia and weight listed separately?

Re: What flywheel
I know.
Just to warn you though Kris, pay attention to that flywheel. I didn't know it at the time but my friend recently experience his flywheel coming apart. His cover that you can replace backed off and messed his clutch up pretty good.
He bought another one and is fine but just keep a eye on it. His started to make a crazy ass noise, if you hear it. STOP driving it.
