Flywheels

Sounds like everyone is having clutch probs right now and i happen to be one of them. When i do my clutch I plan to do the flywheel as well. Does anyone know the stcok flywheel weight? Plus which is the best/lighest/deal on an aftermarket flywheel. I need something to hold some good horses so any advice?
Thanks

For the performance and price you cant beat spec clutch, GREAT customer service also. They have stages 1 through 5, check them out:

Thumbs up

I've been running SLP's light weight PP and FW for several year now. I like it. It is well designed and drops some weight , but is not so radical as to affect street manners.

Ive read all the post about this subject and they complain about getting the car started rolling with one isnt that what the 4.56 gear is for? Pus on the street the majority of the time your done rolling when u kick it to race. Another thing what is the exact weight of a stock flywheel? And what is the lightest flywheel?

If you're street racing, I've always heard a heavier flywheel is better to keep the inertia going. I don't think that was your question, but that's just my $.02
