Machining the steel flywheel was one method of lightening the original
flywheel but NISMO offered (and still may) an aluminum flywheel made by
Tilton. It weighs 10 pounds and has a steel insert.

Subject: Re: [Roadsters] Comp flywheel
Gary,
IIRC, aren't comp flywheels
simply machined from originals? Using the
templates from Bob Sharp's book and
the Sheeler (again,iirc) books, the
suggested pattern for machining and
lightening is included. Is there such a
part as a specific comp flywheel?
Enjoy, Eric G

companies that sell these?
