Lightened Flywheel Install

Lightened Flywheel Install
I have an 88 TII motor, and I was thinking about putting a lightened steel flywheel on it. The one that I have on there now is currently stock.
If I do this, will I have to remove the front engine cover to replace the counterweight? Is there an eaiser way?

No, you don't have to replace the counterweight. You just bolt the lightened flywheel right on and go.

because I thought that If the flywheel was changed the engine would not be balanced, unless I also changed the counterweight?

You will need to purchse a counterweight that attachs to the e-shaft from the rear under the flywheel. The stock flywheels essentially haver their counterweight within them which is one of the reasons they are so heavyCounterweights are generation/engine specific.
The counterweight accomplishes what it is named for.

The counter weight bolts to the E shaft behind the big nut. The lightweight flywheel bolts to the counterweight like a automatic flexplate with 6 bolts. As a matter of fact, the counterweight you'll be using is probably an auto counterweight. This is the set up I'm most familiar with, anyways.
