This time I've got to agree with Vince. I've got model A's both ways and would prefer lighter flywheels in all of them. I run a model B flywheel in my roadster and it out performs the ones with stock heavy model A flywheels. I get faster acceleration, easier gear shifts and less weight has got to be easier on the main bearings. I run other mods like higher compression, two B carbs, warmed up ignition, free flowing exhaust and a Stipe ground cam. My engine is low milage and runs the original Ford balanced rotating assy. It idles good and will chick ah lunk with the spark retarded after a slight warm up. Its got wonderful low end torque. I can let it idle and pop my foot off the clutch pedal and it will take off without choking down. We've never needed to ride the clutch when taking off. I have good hill climbing ability and its got power much like a modern vehicle. This is my experience.
