Lightened flywheel Posted by Gary Stottler [Email] (#1463) [Profile/Gallery] (more from Gary Stottler) on Tue, 16 Jul 2013 20:17:38 In Reply to: Re: 1978 99 turbo fly wheel bolts - measurements, alvaro isla, Tue, 16 Jul 2013 11:25:52 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
Alvero,
I had mine lightened (to 17 lb from 23) by a race engine machine shop. I can send you some pictures of it if you'd like. Keep in mind that I have not actually put the engine together and driven it, so I can't confirm how well it works :-)
I did talk to Keith in CT and he said that he had his lightened to 17lb and that he really likes it, but you have to have the throttle solenoid in place and working or the engine will sometimes stall when you declutch.
Best,
Gary
