Default Flywheel recomendations

1994 ..187k But coming in with a fresh rebuild. 4.11's. hooker long tubes, no cats, no muffs, cam, 1.6 roller rockers, tune, intake, under drive pullies. Should be at 325 to the wheels..I have this clutch coming as a replacement (http://carolinaclutch.com/ShowItem/108830.aspx)

I am wondering what flywheel would match up for this set-up...I am looking for normal driving conditions with once in a while hard driving.

Thanks in advance !

Derek

what a deal, they're giving away dual mass flywheels !!!

but another option would be the offerings by SPEC, aluminum (14 lbs), billet steel light weight (21 lbs), billet steel, single mass, stock weight. It all depends on your driving style and what you're willing to tolerate in the way of transmission noise. There's a ton of threads addressing the issue of replacement flywheels, some of which address all these issues (and more) in depth.

I recently installed the new Spec heavyweight Steel SMF in my '94 LT1 car, along with a Spec Stage 2 clutch kit. I've heard zero gear rattle since this install, and am very pleased. You might want to check to make sure it's compatible with the clutch you're planning to use before you buy, if you decide to go this route.

Live well,

Spec 3+ with 21 LBS GM Camaro flywheel. Great set up. IMHO, I would go with the Spec Billet 21 LBS flywheel. You do not have to shave like the GM flywheel which is also only forged.
