Name that FLYWHEEL!

Found this on my engine today... a few folks believe it to be an old RB light steel.

Engine is an s5 TII

All Kidding aside though,Can you weigh it?..That may tell you if it is close to the RB lightened steel flywheel weight.

RB doesn't sell a TII lightweight steel flywheel (at least any more) but the pic for the N/A has a TII flywheel that looks pretty similar. Just look at it, all creepin' up in the back like it knows what it's doing....

That's it (on the top).

Even has the little step for the mounting surface!
