Greetings,
Does anyone have any comment on how to best balance the J2
crank/flywheel/clutch
assembly? The pressure plate has some slop where it rides in the
pin guides, so I would expect that this could easily move a little
bit within the flywheel, throwing off the balance.
Is there a general consensus on how useful the additional 3rd bearing
that can be fitted to the front of the engine is? I will be using
an Allen billet crank and rod set 73 mm stroke in the engine.
Does the alloy clutch cover plate as supplied by Sports & Vintage
motors provide a noticable improvement in throttle response? My
original steel clutch cover is in good condition but the flywheel
and clutch assembly seems awfully massive for an engine of this size.
I will be putting a blower on this engine and racing the car in VSCDA
so smoothness and durability at high rpms is desired (or is that
an oxymoron with a 2 bearing crank :-) ).
Thank you,
Bill Putnam
