Smooth would be the last word I would use... I have had the thing since May of 07 and it has been a headache of a project the whole way through... sadly I almost wish I hadn't started the conversion and kept it n/a. Oh and im 19 now but ill be 20 in May.

the only reason i say that is because a lighter flywheel is used more for autox or road racing because it doesnt have to keep reving up a heavy flywheel all the time as to on the street when in stop and go traffic where you sometimes need that extra force behind it.
