stupid question here.........

what would lightning the flywheel do and is it worth doing

 

quicker revs!!!!
but you do loose some tourque

 

btw... they are no stupid questions... just stupid people. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]
j/k

 

you can either trail lighten which removes 1 pound but still retains electric start or you can race lighten by removing 2.3 pounds and ditching the electric start.

 

SInce the clutches in the scrablers, sports, trailblazers, dont' engage where the Torque is effective, the flywheel lightening is a must do in my book. It will improve throttle response, let it rev quicker, thus improving the snap at the bottom end of these effected quads, and in other words improve the bottom end of the quads mentioned above... Before, I could nail the throttle from a stop or slow role and it would just take off and maybe spin the tires on the pavement. Now I could flip the front end over on a role and dead stop...

 

Any body know how much to cut off the flywheel for 13oz ? .025-.050 ? Or is it trial and error.

lighten the flywheel allow engine to build rpm faster,faster and better throttle response as well,meanwhile it will NOT decrease engine torque
only put a higher powerband hit and some more rpm on top end,less rotating mass beside the engine crank will produce more power response,again bearing reliability become important.
