What are the best flywheels to get?

[treysawyers]

What are the best reliable flywheels i could get on the market 8lbs - 12.5lbs? i hear different things about aluminum flywheels, steel, chromoly which ever. let me know which names i could look into

 

[DC_Project]

ACT or Exedy would prob be the best brand

i have the exedy chomoly lightened flywheel and am happy wit it, i think its like 9 pounds, its on a b16 and i rev up pretty fast.

i just got my ACT flywheel back today, YEA for me, had to get it resurfaced, now i just need a clutch.

ACT 11lb for me

chromoly are slightly heavier then aluminum.. chromoly are stronger then aluminum.. aluminum have a longer life span.. but aluminum tends to warp after long term use.

weight depends on type of driving you will be doing, what mods, and what type of racing..

i have 8.4 prolite act, its better for road racing, but for drag would recommend streetlite 11.4, your rpms will saty higher when you shift. when i drag, i sort of spin most of way through first.

 

[anekin007]

i thought in road racing is better with about 12lbs and drag under 10lbs..the heavier between the two will put out better mid power and more tq. the ligher flywheel is better for drag because it makes the most power on top.

My Clutch Masters Flywheel on my B is wonderful...I cant remember the weight, but its made from T6 Aircraft Al

lol you are all WRONG.. you said BEST
so TILTON, but thats the worst on your pockets
ive ran a act street lite and a stock one shaved to 10lbs both have worked just fine for me..

Please explain, because from what i know, it is much better in lower power because it helps you rev from bottom to top faster, higher end will lag because you don't have as much rotional mass/inertia to keep it spinning w/the same amount of power.
