Flywheel pin information for KH motor

I guess I differ in my opinion than most people here in regards to light flywheels.  I think they are the way to go hands down on a NA car or a race turbo, but I don't agree for a street turbo.  Load is what spools a turbo and with the 4k the gearing is already working against you in low gears (tall gearing spools turbos faster also).

Anyway I have a SPEC Stage II clutch good for 360 lb-ft and it was far cheaper than getting a used 240 mm flywheel and sachs clutch kit.

mention correct.  ITs also the same flywheel used on some later
MC-2 motors.
