Frank,
Let me (us) know how the new flywheel works out. I am thinking about one
for my driver/project car. Dad says they will help in acceleration. I am
looking for all the "bolt on" parts that will help in this field...without
lowering the dependability factor. I wanna keep it a "driver".
Thanks in advance & good luck!!!
