Hello everybody, so I'm in the process of ordering a new flywheel for my 4 speed swap, and i have a question concerning weight. Summit has two reasonably priced flwheels: a Summit Racing Brand and a ZOOM brand, but they both weigh about 16 lbs. The flywheel i have chosen for now is a ZOOM OE Replacement
What concerns me is the weight, i have read that a lightweight flywheel will have a hard time coming off the line compared to a stock 25-30 lbs one, and i might get some bogging or chatter when trying to accelerate. I was wondering if any one has any experience with this?
I will be running a SBC 327 with two barrel carb, stock manifolds and a 7.5 rear end with 2.41 gears, do you think i should go with a stock weight one or will the 16 lbs flywheel be OK?
