fylwheel question
i'm planing on buying a light flywheel and clutch setup. i found one on sr motorsports but it comes with an alluminum flywheel. i was wondering if that would be to light for my setup. i've got an intake and dual exaust from header back. would that be ok for daily driving to and from work. or should i go with a steel flywheel?

The feel of a flywheel depends on its moment of inertia rather than its static weight. It is best to try a friend's setup to see how you like it.
If you are just driving your car to and from work then I think you should stick with the stock flywheel and spend your money on something more worthwhile.

the stock is around 23 or 24lbs. steel is around 17lbs. and the alluminum is 11 i think. i just dont want to get the alluminum and then its a pain to drive in traffic. is it going to be to jerky or pedal pressure to hard or what not.

When talking about those weights remember that the counterweight is built into the stock flywheel so it is included in the weight. The aftermarket flywheels do not include the weight of the counterweight, so once that is added the weight will be different than advertised compared to stock.
