[QUOTE="sparkywig, post: 637380, member: 3541"] Off the top of my head stock flywheels are around 17lb in old money, with lightened ones around 12lb. That's an extra 2 1/2 bags of sugar spinning on the end of the crank. Apparently stock flywheels are better in a bus, but I've run lightened flywheels on stroker engines for the last 12 years or so with no ill effect. Lightened flywheels allow the engine to gain and lose revs quicker, but can idle rougher and are easier to stall than a stock weight flywheel. [/QUOTE]
