Hi All

Looking to get a used flywheel from somewhere like fleabay to get lightened etc. Then put it on next time the box is out.

Can someone let me know which one I need? Car has a T5 box.

Cheers

Its from Rover SD1 and should weigh 12.5 kg / 27,5 pounds, I milled my old one down to 10.2
Its possible to get down to 9 kg as per the TVR 500 flywheel. Its time consuming and you have to get the balance right after milling! But IMO the best thing to do is like I have, and buy this superlight one from V8tuner:

Its 6.8kg and a direct fit, will spin up like a cerbera smile
