Flywheel

On the flywheel I have from RF, designed to mesh with the Audi 016 gearbox, it appears that it is internally balanced, but does anyone know definitively?

Re: Flywheel

I'm pretty sure the flywheel is a zero balance. But, when you put it on to mate with your engine it'll all be balanced together and you'll end up with some holes drilled in it to match them up.

Re: Flywheel

I was told (by Robert when he was at my house )to take it to competent engine shop, have it balanced for either a 28oz. or 50 oz. setup. Which ever your engine is balanced to.Bolt it on and go. My engine is already balanced for a 28oz. I guess if you dont already have a engine, then take it with you when they are going to build you one.

Re: Flywheel

Thanks guys. My engine guru (thanks Simon) said it is neutrally balanced. That's good for what they want, and that makes me happy.
