1. Effect of Flywheel Weight for Bikes and Cars (score: 1): Author: ardunbill@webtv.net; Date: Thu, 12 Apr 2001 10:11:08 -0400 (EDT); George raised this question the other day, and it is a good one, with considerable practical and theoretical interest. Tom made an interesting observation about his experience with it. As we all know; /html/land-speed/2001-04/msg00262.html (12,912 bytes)

Re: Effect of Flywheel Weight for Bikes and Cars (score: 1): Author: Dick J <lsr_man@yahoo.com>; Date: Thu, 12 Apr 2001 07:59:50 -0700 (PDT); Many years ago I raced corvair-powered Porsche in European hill climbs. Before that I had a 283 Chev with a light aluminum flywheel and always loved the way it would grab the revs. I lusted for that; /html/land-speed/2001-04/msg00263.html (9,073 bytes)

Re: Effect of Flywheel Weight for Bikes and Cars (score: 1): Author: ardunbill@webtv.net; Date: Fri, 13 Apr 2001 11:15:08 -0400 (EDT); Dave, there is still pressure over the piston on the exhaust stroke as it pumps the exhaust gas, the exhaust valve stays open a long time after TDC. Granted, the pressure is not as much as on the com; /html/land-speed/2001-04/msg00287.html (8,367 bytes)

The average is so minimal as to be unimportant with an open exhaust car..Been there done that have data to show it.; /html/land-speed/2001-04/msg00288.html (8,644 bytes)

I would suspect what happens is the oiling system has problems to be honest. First you have negative g loadings and the oil goes to the fron; /html/land-speed/2001-04/msg00291.html (11,638 bytes)

The exhaust valve and port are a restriction and the piston is pumping. Cheers B; /html/land-speed/2001-04/msg00294.html (8,108 bytes)
