Flywheel and clutch assembly weights-LT1?
Ok guys, I’m replacing the clutch on my 95 Z28 LT1.
After way to much internet research I think I’ve settled on either the
SPEC stage 3+ with a SPEC flywheel or a Mcleod street twin for LT1 with adj. m/c..
I really don’t want to install a flywheel/clutch assembly that is heavier than stock.
In order to get the proper setup I have a few unanswered questions.
What is the weight of a stock GM LT1 flywheel?
At this link it appears to 20 or 20.5 lbs.. Seems too light?

Weight of a replacement stock clutch appears to be 25 lbs. shipping weight on most websites. Agree to this weight?
If the stock clutch and flywheel assembly weigh 45 lbs. this is the same as a Mcleod LT1 street twin w/aluminum flywheel. (Mcleod weight per Billy at Mcleod).
A steel flywheel would obviously weigh more.
How much does a SPEC billet steel flywheel for LT1 weigh?
Sorry for the book, but I’ve not able to find these answers.
