Lightened flywheel sources
If I do need a new flywheel, what are the sources for a lightened flywheel
for street use. I don't want a racing flywheel that is about half the
weight? I called AR Ricambi for a used flywheel, but they didn't have one
I didn't ask about their racing flywheel. Paul Spruell also has a racing
flywheel that is 7.2 pounds vs. a stock 21.5 pound. I plan on calling him
today for a recommendation. I remember reading about other sources, but
did not at the time save them, if anyone has any other sources for lightened
or used flywheels I would greatly appreciate it, thanks.
Dave Rugh, here in Portland, makes a 4130 steel flywheel. I'm not sure what
it weighs, but have one on my Spider---it is certainly lighter than the cast
iron stocker. He gets something like $350 for them. The comfort comes not
only from quicker revving but from the knowledge that it will never, ever,
under any circumstances blow up and take my foot off. I wish I could afford
one for the Berlina.
Dave's phone number is 503-621-3794; he'll probably be the one to answer.
Cheers,
Joe Cantrell
