Default Re: Is a lightened flywheel overrated? (I think so)

Very good thread here, lots of correct information.
The one thing, and I may have just breezed by it, is the intended use of the motor combination. The lightened flywheel will be most noticed in the acceleration of the car. Usually this is in conjunction with multiple modifications to increase performance of vehicle. I have been told many things about flywheels, including that a Model A will not run without one.

Keep up the good work, all of this is to be considered in the world of the Model A/B.

Also, if the original Turbo Encabulator article surfaces, I would like to send to some youngsters at work, just to see their reactions.........

John
