Just ordered a RB 17# flywheel?

Hope I got the right one, I guess everyone is as confused about a Cosmo 13b-RE as I am, but i got the 225mm 87-88 turbo 2 17# flywheel...

Im using a Cosmo 13b-RE and a 88 t2 tranny...

Funny thing too , is on there website it says $390 , I got it a shitload cheaper than that. Also when I called them on Friday they quoted me a price and it was more expensive than what i payed today ? So I guess the price changes according to the day you buy it?

He told me, he had one on the 'shelf' For a 87-88 T2 light steel flywheel 17 pounds, would ship today , be here Friday...

And it was way cheaper than the site says, maybe cause he asked if I was a buisness and I said Yes and then gave him my Business liscense number and tx id # ? Dunno but im in the car stereo biz not the fast car biz But anyways it got me a deal...

****, I hope not !!

But how are those pulleys, Im thinking of getting one they say they have a true ATDC on them ... Cuz theres a difference in timing betwen 12A and a 13b

Like -20 -10 0 +10 +20 is marked on the pulley , right?
