Have a 3 liter with 46s in 914…..Trying to decide if I want to install a lightened flywheel I have on the shelf. Basically a track car.
Looking for input from anyone who has made that change.
Thanks ,

Appreciate input.
Posting pics since it looks so much different than what has been posted.
Any idea what this is worth ……based on street useage probably going to sell.
Thanks again

Interesting. I have no idea on value, especially not knowing if it also requires matching / dedicated pressure plate, disc, TO brg and starter ring gear... but interesting nonetheless...

Looks like the AASCO unit that I've been running on the 2.7/6 and it's just fine for street or track--has separate ring gear, I use the "sport" Sachs pressure plate. Flywheel retails around $600....
