Taing it to the next level- 3.6 engine build

I thought that the lightened flywheel was a no go, due to balance issues.

Not an issue when you are building the engine up from scratch and balancing everything.

I'd never use the lightweight flywheel unless we were using this crankshaft... I also make a lot of changes to things, including the knock sensors, and their sensitivity. It's very risky business, but I live to take risks and learn from them.

No risks on this one, I took the risks to support these initiatives with test engines years ago.

Yes, I dynamically balance everything in house, and I'll do this one personally. Here the person building the engine will do 100% of the tasks associated with that engine.

We don't look to outside manufacturers, or farm work out. We don't have to.

Ok, it makes sense when you balance all the parts together.

But, when the time comes to replace your light weight flywheel with a new one, how do you balance the new replacement…?
