I've just had my flywheel lightened at a local machine shop, what they failed to let me know is that they don't balnce them there. I have a place that will balance it but he'd prefere to use the crankNot an option so my question is (& I think I know the answer......
Do I need it balanced ?
not unless your planning reving it past 10,000rpm like a motor bike,mine flywheel has been lightend to fit my clutch and have no issues so far but i broken another drive shaft monday night on my way home from the ace cafe

So your flywheel was machined & not balanced ?

I'm sure I read about how you can balance a flywheel at home...
Well I could balance it on the table, chair...I'll get my coat...
send it to me an i will balance it on me head son...
I was sitting at the lights waiting to turn on the a40 and all i could hear was robbie blasting away of the slip road. I had windows up radio on and could hear it so clearly.. and theres me saying take me out and you wouldnt because you'll break it
the way i look at it what is the point of building a high powered car and not using it to its full potential.i enjoy fixing and braking my car and taking it to the limit it on the street or drag strip.the more i drive it to the limit i will get problems thats the idea to find out what goes wrong and improve my f7pturbo conversion.
