I've resurfaced flywheels before (81a - 99a). Had no idea they where inherently bad, maybe if the heat checking was really really bad? I prefer a slight milled flywheel for a street flathead. yes you can have a too light flywheel on the street.

Having a lightened flywheel on a model a is a nice thing to say, but less you racing it's counter productive. Certainly more so on a tour car. Better to get it from compression or bore.


Think of it this way. when you want to rev fast it will. but then you are on the road and cruising... the flywheel maintains through cyclical force were a lite flywheel does not. Realistically if you want higher speeds on a car and less burnouts, a heavy flywheel will help. Easier to keep a ball in motion.
