Just for information. It is a factory 11 inch flywheel from a 455. I have .125 shaved off the face. The flywheel weighs 35 lbs. Everything fits. There is clearance between flywheel bolts and clutch springs. I bought a plate and clutch from a place that advertises in HPP. They are out of Indiana. He explained the difference between dual friction and straight clutches. The clutch is called a hustler and plate is heavy than than stock. Total price $195.00

A good topic would be "The difference on Flywheel weights and application. A 15 lb flywheel on a 455 versus 400. 6000 rpm motor versu 5000. 3700 lb car versu 3200.

Lots and lots of variables. I chose the 35 lb weight because I do not need torque. I have N 50 M T's and can't stop tire spin. I have a 4 speed and really have no plans on going to the strip, except maybe a time slip.
I feel the inertia created by the flywheel is worth more the quicker revs allowed with a lighter wheel. I am running a 455 / 3:73.

Using a G-tech accelerometer I run a 107.2 qter. I haven't messed with the car to much as far as tuning. My et's are bad, but on street tires and payment I don't expect much.

I used to go to a site where it would figure horsepower thru weight and mph. I had also had formulas. I lost them. Could someone help me this?
3800 lbs 107 mph

thanks,
