[QUOTE="rtvickers, post: 10892280, member: 83642"] Here's my concern. I had an aluminum flywheel. I thinks its stock. It looks like the center section is replacable. But it looks like its riveted in. Didnt think I could change it. So I bought a used almost new steel flywheel. I think its from spec. It was said that it only had 1000mi on it. I paid $60 for it. I cleaned it up and it looked brand new. I took my car to the track a few weeks ago and made some runs. It seems like its down on power. It just didnt pull on the top end like it did before. Somethings not right. Would the switch from aluminum to steel make that big of a difference? I also made a few other changes so Im not totally convinced its the flywheel. I had the S/C loose. I think something is going on there also. The boost doesnt seem right. The aluminum flywheel was so warped it couldnt be resurfaced, thats why I didnt reuse it. Here's a pic of it.
