Great burnout Ryan! Made Alex Zanardi proud. Who was out there shooting video and where did they upload it too?
Rusty, Clean the brake fitting with brake cleaner and wire brush. then spray PB Blaster or better yet http://www.boeshield.com/ T-9 on it for a few days, several times a day. Then get a brake line wrench, it's a crescent wrench that hooks around the brake fitting more. For more leverage and so it won't slip. Local autoparts stores sell them.
Then go for it.

how much does the aluminum flywheel help with throttle response? i have a BP 12a (MazdaTrix templates), MSD Blaster 2's, Holly 465 (once i get it up and running and looking nice, i'll get the racing beat bridge port carb and intake), fresh clutch, new plugs, Magnacore 8.5mm wires, RB SP header, RB Duals, e-fan, installing a Holly Blue fuel pump on thursday. Flywheel and clutch are down the road a ways because both are brand new factory replacements (bought the car earlier this summer, and the clutch/flywheel combo have about 250 miles on them), and right now i'm debating between getting a Moly racelite flywheel or an aluminum flywheel. Does the extra pound of weight savings with the AL flywheel make drivability suck, or is it not that noticble?

Well ppl say that if you use the AL flywheel you'll lose from a stop, because it dosent have enough weight to push you forward.
Also you'll have a hard time driving on the street. Like it will be jerky, and you have to ide the clutch.
My experience with it.
Feels the same from a stop.
Dont have a hard time driving the street. I can start in 2nd.
And No I dont have to ride the clutch.
Then again I have 4.44 gears. Some say that its the gears that help.
With 6pk and 3500lb pressure plate. No Problems
Then I changed to this cuz I was breaking trannys.
Stock 215 and stock disk. No Problems. (thanks to TODD STAPLES BTW)
As far as throttle response I would have to say that there is much of an improvement. It fells like it pulls harder once it gets into higher RPMS, also when its @ higher RPMS the throttle responce its excelent.
Thats with a 6prt, so I dont really feel anything till after 3k.
If anything go with a Lighten Steel. If there is a driveability prob it will be a lil heaiver, and still lighter than stock.
I think I weighed the stock 86-88 one to about 22.5 and the Al one to 8.5? or 12.5? I think 8.5 thou.
