On my street TR4A, the harmonics came in about 2800 RPM and again at 5600 RP=
M.
It was an interesting sensation. Hard to describe.
I never noticed it in any of the race engines.

The heavier the flywheel, the lower the harmonic frequency will be. The fl=
ywheel contributes a significant amount to the total rotating inertia due to=
its weight and that the weight is at greater radius than the other rotating=
masses. Inertia increases as the square of the radius. It is not a linear=
function of the radius.

t would be complex. Note that lighter pistons and connecting rods would ten=
d to lower the harmonic frequency as they would reduce the inertia in the en=
gine.
