Re:  Lightened Flywheels

Hi Bob:  I absolutely love the extra power (perceived or actual) in my
Healeys with light flywheels.  My BN1 has one from DW that weighs about 12
pounds and I'm using DW's damper on the front.  The car has an upgraded
crankshaft and BN7 gearbox, so maybe that's kept it from flying apart.  My
BN7 w/BJ8 cam has an alloy flywheel I got on eBay that I think weighs about
20 pounds.  It runs smooth as silk with no ill effects.  I still can get
occasional run-on though, with lower octane fuel.

On the gearbox oil leaks, check the lower bell housing bolts which, at
least on the side shifts, extend into the gearbox and can leak.  Also,
"Quad Ring" OD operating shaft seals are available from AH Spares, part
0VD185MS.  I haven't tried them yet, but it seems like they would be an
improvement over the single O rings generally used.
