so what are your questions? there are guys here that have done alot of research on alum. flywheels and could help you out. just because we don't have thme doesn't mean we know nothing about them...

post your ?? and see what happens... instead of just asking if anyone has one!

Question

Pros and Cons when comparing a lightweight flywheel (aluminum) vs. heavier flywheel (stock steel). This will be on a 383 stroker nitrous motor. Any real world info would be appreciated.

What do you plan to use your car for? Auto-x or drag/street racing? I would assume drag racing from your mods and plans. Aluminum flywheels are better suited for auto-x, due to lighter weight and quicker reving. Heavier steel flywheels are better for drag racing, since you want more reciprocating mass for harder launches coming off the line.
