torque and lightweight flywheels????
Just a general question here.
Given a typical street/strip big block with 500-550 lb/ft of torque, would a lightweight flywheel be a little more streetable than say on a more high strung small block??
It is my understanding that a heavier flywheel helps launch by storing more energy than a lighter one. I'm also thinking that the hevier internals of a big block would help in rev matching and rpm hanging on upshits with a lighter flywheel.
Damn, that's something I didn't want to hear. I'm glad I got to meet him and Rosie and Rick. I'm proud to have had him as a friend, RIP Johnboy
