maybe I am reading this thread incorrectly... BUT it sounds like Jake is saying our engines are balanced from the factory.

if you do a clutch job, I am under the impression that in many cases the stock flywheel needs to be replaced due to wear.

so it comes off and a new one goes on.

Assuming you put on a LWFW, I can understand how you throw things out of balance, as it is a lighter part.

if, however, I put on a new OEM flywheel - even though it's a stock part - because everyhting has been taken apart and put back together - will it STILL be "out of balance" and potentially fail - just like it would with a LWFW???

if that is the case - then anyone who does a clutch job and changes out the flywheel now is on the verge of a crank failure??

i'm confused...
